Haiku Wednesday - So I Married a Geek

My husband loves to play computer games—it’s his thing.  But based on the amount of moaning, groaning, and screaming I hear coming from his office most nights, I’m convinced that he’s not very good at them.  Since this Saturday concludes the month of August, this will be my last Haiku Wednesday post.  I hope you enjoyed your 68 syllables of poetry.

He dies a thousand

deaths when we’re apart—damn those

gaming marathons.

Haiku Wednesday - Buzzing

After a couple of pointlessly restless nights, I finally got a good night’s sleep.  It does wonders for the soul.  I wish everyone a happy Wednesday and a restful evening.

lulled by locust buzz,

doze to cricket chirp, dream in

cicada rhythms

Haiku Wednesday-- Illumination

Welcome to the next HAIKU WEDNESDAY!

The Serendipitree

I wrote this poem on July 24^th , from the loft of the “Serendipitree” at the Out ‘N About Treesort in Cave Junction, Oregon.  I highly recommend this place.  It’s like vacationing in the Ewok village.        Check out their website. 

turned the light back on

to see if the moth was gone—

counterproductive

Haiku Wednesday-- This is marriage.

Greetings, my thousands and thousands of blog fans!  I hope you are doing well today.  In the interest of posting more frequently and less wordily, I am excited to announce that for the month of August, every Wednesday will be Haiku Wednesday here at The Black Cat Diaries.  (The crowd goes wild!)  Feel free to comment, critique, or question in haiku form.  And since I have already vastly exceeded my syllable allocation, let's get to it.

I dreamed you did the 

dishes—woke to a sink full

of disappointment
