A Tuesday it seems
Working Sunday confused me
Monday…it still is!

A Tuesday it seems

Below freezing nights,
Houses show their Christmas lights…
Electric socks–feet sweat!

–Jonathan Caswell
Dusk falls earlier,
Many complain of the dark…
Six months of this left?

(HAIKU)
Glowery dark skies,
All is bright seeing your eyes…
Flowers surround you!
–J.E.C
–
(an A-B-C-B RHYME SCHEME)
Glowery is the day,
When I’m not at your side…
Thoughts of you brighten my way
With flowers turning to the Light!
–
The Light of God we are,
Who follow Christ Jesus Lord…
Living water springs forth
When to Him we open our heart’s door.
–
Everyday in God’s kingdom
Is like a sunshiny day…
No cloud or rain can disturb us,
Our Lord through shadow…leads the way.

(LIMERICK-STYLE)
–
All glowery it looks out there,
Moisture hanging in air…
Darkness all
Destined to fall,
On its knees to our Creator fair!
–J.E.C.
(TANKA-STYLE)
–
Sunshine hid by clouds
Mortals yawn with out-stretched arms
A good soaking rain
Glowery skies in your eyes
Are worse than having no sun!
–J.E.C.
–
–Jonathan E. Caswell, Poet
Hearing thunder storms
Lightening fills dark skies,
We are soaked…in peace!

Friday, May thirteenth
No fears bother me then…no…
Just another day.
==J.E.C.
–
Driving rain all night
Runoff fills up river pools
Natural dirt streams
–J.E.C.
–
Klutzy people find
Friday, the thirteenth don’t mind
It’s nice company!
–J.E. Caswell
Sunday’s promised snow,
Around three inches may blow…
Our chances for sun!
–
For some of us here,
Snow shovels in our back seats…
White icing is fine!
–
Can’t get beans until
We pay our electric bill…
Perhaps…this next week!
–
Three inches expect,
Icy highways to inspect…
Aftermath: DISSECT!

PRE-CHRISTMAS HAIKU
–
Christmas shopping lasts
Through Christmas at every sale
Great sales in August!
–
Hungrier each minute
See a cook pot–what’s in it?
EW–slimy fish worms!
–
Green Christmas forecast,
Not time yet for winter blast…
How ’bout white spray paint?
–
Pickings very thin,
Bonus check kept them afloat…
Gift lists shorter still!
–
In America,
Children dream of many things…
How many come true?
–
Sleigh bells vibrating,
For deep snow they are waiting…
Bicycle wheels on?
–
No children at all,
Our celebration is small…
Christ comes in the flesh!!!
–
God to man did come,
Through Mary the bless-ed one…
Defenseless baby!
–
Wise men followed stars,
Herod’s hatred bore him scars….
Tricked, he killed them all!
–
Festive parties run
Glitter edifies no one…
Believe and choose God!
–
When all is silent,
Reflect on Jesus being…
Born to live, then die!
–
–Jonathan Caswell
HAIR HAIKU
–
Redheads are my fave
Those so creative and brave
Glowing in color
–
The Supervisor
Hair was “bronde” but no wiser
Now knows she’s in style!
–
Brunettes–married one
Grey and silver in a bun
SPIRITUAL MATE.
–
I respect all hues
Each one can be real good news!
Good women and men
–
–Jonathan Caswell
COMPUTER “UPDATE”
(Haiku)
Unknown updates push
Over edge operator…
Was it a virus?
–
Serenity gone,
Where did my internet go?
Not getting WI-FI!
–
Preparing–for WHAT?
Didn’t ask or order this!
Technicians bring peace.
