Haikus

Karlee comes home with all these really fun writing assignments.  I love to see what they are and then read what she comes up with.  There are times I copy the assignment and try my hand at it.  It reminds me of my creative writing class that I took in high school.  It was my favorite class.  So last week Karlee came home telling me that she had to cut out a few pictures and then use them to write a haiku poem.  She did a really good job.  Today I found myself sitting at my desk inspired to do the same assignment. 

Colors so bright

Tulips on my table

Puts a smile on my face

 

(kayak)

Peacefully exploring

Just room for two

Enjoying our surrounings

 

My child's smile

Restores happiness in my heart

How they grow so fast

(jet ski)

Fast cool waves

Splashing and bumping me

Zooming on the water

Fluttering by

With colors so blended

Gracefully soaring high above

Flagstaff Sky

Painted beauty

Breath taking colors

Gazing upon what my creator made
