Environment - Haiku Book

Sunday 03/02/19

The sun is shining,
Bright in the afternoon sky,
Ready to set soon.

Golden rays extend
Across the western skyline,
In glory passes.

There’s snow on the ground,
Patchy white fields fly by me.
As the train speeds on.

Thank God it’s Friday,
TGIF yes for sure!
It’s been a long week.

I want to relax
On a cruise somewhere warm,
Maybe in my dreams.

I lost track of time,
My dates out, a day behind,
Back on track today.

The mist covered fields,
With trees and fields frosted white,
Look good in sunlight.

There snow on the ground,
When I left for work today.
A lovely white start.

It is cold tonight,
I do not think it will snow,
But i could be wrong.

It feels so cold now,
Shadows dark along the road,
Shrink from the cold light.

Like this bad Brexit,
Dark and shameful Brexit deal.
I have had enough.

Did it snow today?
I thought it and was told it,
Yes i think it did.

Who cares? You may ask.
I like it but the trains don’t.
Maybe work from home.

The morning sky grey,
Heavy and expectant,
One by one they fall.

Heathrow stops for drones,
Loads of passenger just moan,
I understand that.

It’s not good for them,
Made to wait and losing out,
Time wasters paid up.

In this broken world,
We’re obsessed with quick fixes,
Not real solutions.

Bowie – We’ve 5 years,
Before the end of the world.
Maybe that is true!

Note: 5 years from David Bowie’s Album ‘The Rise and Fall Of Ziggy Stardust’. And, Yes, it is one of my favourite albums.

All that plastic stuff,
Not so convenient now!
So stop using it.

The earth, green and blue,
So beautiful – Let’s keep it.
Do our very best.

Our environment,
So lovely and very precious.
We must preserve it.

White clouds fill the air,
Vapping seems worse than smoking.
Sickly smelly fumes.
