I am not feeling so hot today, which seems to be the trend of many others’ blogposts lately! I’m not “sick” yet, and I refuse to be! I am in the crummy, tired feeling stage before a bad cold or god forbid something worse comes on…but I am taking plenty of Vitamin C, echinacea, and resting today. For some reason, haikus are not easy for me to write. I think it is because they are very simple and my brain tends to be VERY wordy! However, I think they are beautiful because of their simplicity and their ability to create vivid imagery. I wanted to practice a bit, so here are a few about not giving in to this impending sickness!
Throat twinging slightly
Stomach aching bitterly
Sickness go away
Vitamins, tea, rest
A snow day is the best cure
Taking it easy
Longing for summer
Where illness does not exist
Sunshine can cure all
It won’t let me space them out….but there are 3 of them!
I hope this day of rest helps heal your lingering cold and refresh your soul!
Feel better!
You are so right about haikus- yours really did inspire great imagery. And I agree…warm weather cures all. I hope it arrives soon!
