::weekend for memories:: (haiku collective)

by Bethany Lee

saturday morning
with grandparents' love
topped with strawberry shortcake

husband and wife smile
laughing at "you don't know jack"
sitting side by side

sizzle, breathy sighs
pornos giving backdrop glow
lovers entangle

sharing dreams and thoughts
sleepy heads hit the pillow
-dreaming continues...

pancake supplement
coffee, sugar, energy
sated, happy, warm

a short drive from home:
sun-trails led to beaver ponds -
frogs along the way...

a beautiful day,
romping and playing on swings.
the sky, blue and clear

visting some friends,
eating favourite pizza
sated, once again.

good food and music
giggles and conversation,
as good as it gets.

until:

the weekend ended
with splendid prisms arching
against the sunset...

usually, i really hate haiku... however, the way you put this all together is really brilliant. *smooch* much love

Nice ones Vera. I especially like: a short drive from home: sun-trails led to beaver ponds - frogs along the way... brings on some fine boyhood memories. Thanks.

i like the idea of a haiku collective- flashes that together comprise the effect of a time period. very nice
