Pontvert - Haiku Book

Monday 14/10/19 Rain

I love when it rains,
The sound of the rain falling,
Is so relaxing.

Another Monday gone,
The evening will see it out,
Then Tuesday again.

The things that go bump,
In the nighttime,
or the day,
Are often unseen.

This doesn’t help much,
Try setting up cameras,
It might surprize you.

The wet London streets,
Are on each corner and greets,
Those that venture down,

I’m writing a book,
Of Haiku poems, a few,
I hope you’ll buy it!

Rainfall and sunshine,
A recipe for rainbows,
So the fairies say.

Three time I wrote it,
Correcting it,
Line by line,
Each time it improved.

There’s a place I know,
Through the woods,
Beside the lake,
Where the sun goes down.

Au secure!
Help me!
I’m in a place I don’t like,
Another time waste.

Wake to the new day,
Find the opportunities,
Serendipity!

Magnificent crumb,
Dedicated to crumble,
One ingredient.

I’m travelling on,
The towns and country are gone,
Only clouds ahead.

Clouds crowd down low oh!
Showers show how waters fall,
Cover over me.

It’s getting harder,
To log in to my blog site,
But I will get there.

I am stuck for words,
I’m writing what I have heard,
Or maybe, made up.

Wow, I feel warm,
Quick paced walk across London,
And now on the train.

And time after time,
I tell myself, I’m lucky,
To be loving you.

Noone to talk with,
But I’m happy on the shelf,
Ain’t misbehaving.

Songs of long ago,
Drifting through the cool evening,
Those idyllic days.

Everything can be,
Worked through,
Except how to live.
I’m working on that!

Pleasure in the job,
Puts perfection in the work.
That is very true!

All paid jobs absorb,
And degrade the mind, yes true,
It is for me too.

All inspired by the quotes of Aristotle.
