Haiku! (gesundheit!)
Having been pushed into it by Jenn at Something to Say: About Life in the Netherlands, I'm going to enter Leslie's Haiku Buckaroo contest. Jenn is posting one a day at her place, but since I sneeze in threes, I thought it was only appropriate to put up three entries here.
Children quietly
come into our dreary hearts.
Blazing love for all.
In the dusty room
a broken piano leans.
No more music here.
Wind whispers through
empty winter tree branches.
Spring will be here soon.
I may post some more haiku. They're kind of like M&Ms - I find it very hard to stop at just one (or two or three).

You think that you suck
But some think you're pretty good.
Enter the contest!

They ARE like m&m's. My DH does these all the time. I'm trying to push him to enter ;-)
Lovely work here!

OK, since no one else picked it up, I'll do it:
Verse comes out of me
In a short sharp explosion:
Haiku! (gesundheit!)
