Let me add my praise, that is good!

"Soon, later, just a minute"

Excellent!

It's raining, so here's some hang gliding haiku:

Ode to a cloud

The cloud beckons me
With promise of mighty lift
It tugs my soul

Pretty flat green fields
I do not belong there yet
The warm currents rise

The vario sings
I Know only this moment
The sky rewards me

The ground falls away
The clouds carry me with them
The miles pass like dreams

Wispy streams of white
I have lingered here too long
Time to bid farewell

And of course

Ode to a slightly bigger cloud

The cloud tractors me
With uncontrollable lift
It twangs my sidewires

Pretty flat green fields
I wish I was there right now
The air grows colder

The vario screams
The black death bowl engulfs me
I'm in deep **** now

The ground dissapears
My GPS will guide me
White stones strike my face

White gives way to sky
I have escaped with my life
Let's do it again

Salt air on feline whiskers

Time for a shower.

I just taught them to my 4th grade class. For Arbor Day, we went outside, drew a picture and wrote a haiku about a tree. Kids came up with some classics.

Bogus documents,
Stick a fork in him, he's done,
buh-bye, Dan Rather.

Biased journalist,
What's the frequency, Kenneth?
Rather is a joke!

came so early in the morn
in Mississippi.
