haiku - time

outside my window
the clouds speed across the sky -
the alarm clock ticks

***************************
plants buried in mud
millions of years ago -
fossils on the beach


time for Mad Kane's Haiku prompt

  3. For some reason this one reminds me of the old saw ...
    "Time flies like an arrow, Fruit flies like a banana"

    Maybe it is the bunnies around here!

    Inspired me to participate in MadKane's challenge as well. Thanks for opening up new vistas!

    Also, I love your "birds singing" tag--for many years every poem I wrote had birds in it...go figure.

  8. (Out of season)

    the sound of the seconds
    ticking away
    colors of autumn

    Hey Juliet
    I was looking for a haiku on "Time" for a project I need to complete for school and I found yours. Wow! Your poetry is amazing. I would like to know if I could use your haiku as an example in my english 9 class, of course giving the credit to you. Thank you for sharing your art : )
