A campers' Hai-Ku

[Ten Packs]

Campfires cause deep thoughts.
Dreams come alive in the smoke.
Another beer, please.


(Haiku: three metrical units of 5, 7, and 5 syllables)

 

[peapod]

a pause to admire
the mosquito's long legs
then I slap

 

[Ten Packs]

Squirrels from Cedars
Will sneak to picnic table
And sample my peanuts.

 

[Ten Packs]

campfire discussions
sometimes stray ethereal
get another beer

 

[Ten Packs]

Rev cracks one more beer.
Fingers float above keyboard.
Still so much to say.

 

[Reverend Blair]

Oh man, I've never had a haiku written about me before. Now I'm all embarrassed.

 

[Ten Packs]

Called RV Park last week.
5th wheel can be brought out there
in ten days or so.

Much seen by this man.

Not as much as he oft thinks.

Are WE not like-wise?

 

[Ten Packs]

Checked oil other day.
Down two quarts, not good feeling.
Seems okay today.

(*shudder*)

 

[Ten Packs]

One more trip to town;
Everything looks just fine.
Have I gone senile?

 

[Reverend Blair]

Checked oil other day.
Down two quarts, not good feeling.
Seems okay today.

Chevy V-8? Been sitting all winter? The seals might have hardened up. Soemtimes they come back once the hot oil gets on them. Sometimes they don't.

 

[galianomama]

rev, you are straying
stay on the subject line here
pass another beer

 

[Ten Packs]

Engine seems okay.
Taking 5th to lake Sunday.
Hot damn, I love Spring.

 

[Ten Packs]

Trailer now at lake.
Deck-building begins next week.
Do not miss winter.

 

[Ten Packs]

I rejoice alone.
Fate of the R-V owner.
No-one else cares. Sad.
