“What is that word there?”
“It’s verisimilitude.”
“I see – and this one?”
“What is that word there?”
“It’s verisimilitude.”
“I see – and this one?”
Ornithology
is five syllables long, so
will fit any line.

Just a little note
was all she wrote to tell me:
‘Dinner’s in the dog!’
I used to be woke…
in the mornings, by my Mum;
until I left home.
Faces like Thunder,
and Lightning in their voices;
Taran ha Lughes.
Recycle Poets:
pop them in recycling bins,
with the waste paper.
If you say ‘rabbit!’
when you are upon a boat-
dogs go overboard!
The Robin told me
that I had made an error,
‘Upside-down feeder!’
I looked at the bird feeder,
and saw that Robin was right.
It’s this one or that,
I think one must be happy,
or be serious.
.
One about Nature,
the other about laughter
in the first instance.
.
Clouds hover above,
as wise men reach the manger,
not a day too soon.
.
In life one must be,
or attempt an existence,
before the end comes.

A Monday Haiku
Just what ev’rybody needs,
while the day does last.
.
Other things also
might be useful for living:
air, water, coffee.
.
If you are counting,
you might realise something
that others might not.
.
Haikus take less time
than writing fancy sonnets,
like Will Shakespeare did.
