98.
The ghosts of orchards:
lonely light in the farm-yard,
all the apples gone.

Can I find my way?
What is my next step forward?
The bridge falls away.
96.
Where has this week gone?!
How is tomorrow Thursday?!
Want to stay longer!!
95.
The art of stillness
gives me no end of trouble.
Bouncy, noisy girl.
94.
What's that smoky cloud,
hovering over the field?
Just some sausages!!

I've been away on vacation for a bit, so my posting has been interrupted. Ironically, though, it's been a fruitful writing time, so I have many haiku to catch up on posting!! Please bear with me, and the regular posting schedule will resume soon!!
93.
"It's a shrinking time."
The Creole cabbie's quite wise.
Coping's now the norm.
92.
Praying for safety:
two smooth flights with no trouble.
Warm welcome at home.
91.
Last night was the last
crackle of the way things were.
Farewell, 'BCN.
* - For Geek USA's last broadcast on Boston's WBCN.
90.
Can't wait to be home!!
Missing my family lots.
Can't wait to squeeze them!!
89.
I don't know why but
traveling helps me to write.
Haiku aplenty!!
88.
As I wait to fly,
thinking lovingly of home,
I eat tart shallots.
87.
A happy sadness.
Stuck at sixes and sevens.
A sad happiness.
86.
More often than not,
I pick chicken when I can.
Veggie-head by chance?
85.
My tummy was all
jiggly and weird last night, but
I hope that's done now!
84.
Wow, that was so fast!
Service at Cafe Elise
is just like lightning!
83.
Am I shutting doors
without really knowing that
they were even there?

82.
Thunderclouds forming
with greater frequency now:
August on the Gulf.
81.
Tomorrow is the
third anniversary of
my first day at work.
80.
I can't believe I
didn't post yesterday but
things have been crazy.

8/4/09 - Part Deux
For this sequence, please read up from the bottom in numerical order, starting with #74 and ending with #78. The haikus tell a little story that, taken out of order, will not make as much sense. Inspired by the people a few tables over when out at dinner tonight.
78.
I feel ashamed now.
I judged you much too quickly.
But still....the panties!!
77.
Oh, too quick to judge....
We each have our cross to bear.
Yours is Crohn's disease.
76.
Wow, you have no heart.
I hope I'm nicer than you
when I turn 50.
75.
I can see panties!
Your skirt should be much longer!
Auugh! My eyes....my eyes!!
74.
Gossiping ladies....
do I want to hear every
word you say? Um, no.

Five years in the past,
my Dad singled off Bill Lee.
The best hit ever!!
71.
If I ever say
I want coffee after five*
tackle me, okay?
*That's p.m.
