Opis

On January 1, 2014, I posted my first Haiku to Twitter. I have posted at least one every day since then. So far, that's over 900 and counting. I originally started posting because I wasn't dead. I vowed to post one a day for however long I had left. I'm still not dead. (I have an underlying heart condition that seems to be getting less lethal as the days, weeks, months and years roll on although I know it's not.) Someday it will get me, and I will post no more. Until then, I will continue to post (as Haiku) my current thoughts on life, the universe and everything. The Haiku are not always positive or inspirational. Sometimes they are downright disheartening. They frequently reflect the current state of affairs in the world. That usually means death and disasters. Occasionally they reflect purely my take on the vagaries of existence and always such opinions are my own. Once in a while, I celebrate the triumphs or mourn the tragedies of people I hold special. I offer all to you as the pen scratchings of an old woman who has lived well past her sell-by date and cares to share what she has learned, unlearned and not learned with her friends. And if you are reading this, I consider you my friend. By the way, I also do not claim to be an expert in Haiku. I even title them and comment on all of my offerings. I simply like the terse format and feel it lends itself to Twitter amazingly well. So please, enjoy the content, if not always the form.
