This is why I never see too much above my head, or sometimes even in front of me when hiking in the South. You always have to be wary of poisonous snakes below.

Copperhead

I slither and seek

My copper pattern warns you

Please don’t tread on me.

Sometimes poems are inspired by the simplest things like being hungry and awaiting lunch.

Cheeseburger

Juicy beef patty.

Cheese layered across the top.

Mouth watering meal.

Basketball

I’m bounced and dribbled.

Passed from person to person.

Thrown to the round hoops.

War

Bullets are flying.

Destruction, death, and chaos.

Who are the winners?

Cookie Monster

Big and blue I am

Cookies in my face, crumbs fall.

Crazy for cookies!

Homeless

I have no nice house.

People treat me with contempt.

My heart hurts inside.

Stand up

Sometimes your’re knocked down.

You have to keep on going.

Show the World, Stand up!

Stars and Stripes – A Haiku

Red, white, and blue flag

Freedoms colors known worldwide

For in God we trust.

0+0=0

Zero plus Zero

Equals zero. If you don’t

Do your part today,

Don’t expect anything friend,

Because of your poor effort.
