New Year, New Haiku!

Out with the old year
like a trash bag that
tumbles down ... KA-THUNK

Welcome the new year
with a martini or two
then write some haiku

Wrestle with Facebook
click off the twink'ling tree lights
Lie on the cool sheets.

Look back on the day ...
DB's friend, sister's email
of her son's success...

And turn my face to
what God wants me to look at
in year Twenty Ten...

Would you like to haiku today? To participate in Haiku Friday, just follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. It or they can be part or all of your post, but your post must include a haiku. What's a haiku, you ask? Hint: 3 lines, and count syllables, 5-7-5. The best haiku evoke a feeling of place or emotion. (Unlike mine which are often factual.) More info: Click here. Or here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). Don't sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.

3. Please leave a comment after linking, thanks! (Eventually the Mr Linky links go away, I think, so they only way we'll find you in the future is via your comment.)

4. if you'd like, pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top of this post.

REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week.
