Keeley’s Challenge Day 23

• Write a haiku about anything in your day-to-day life

Once again, I admit that I am a dipper:

a dipper is one who enjoys the idea of a challenge but cannot possibly sustain the habit of writing every single day; a dipper may choose to dip in and out of the prompts when inspiration calls or time permits.

I think I am doing quite well on these challenges this month. I think this is the third I have taken part in 23 days so far. Not bad!

I haven’t written a haiku in a while, so this challenge was a good excuse to do just that. In fact, I wrote six!

Mutsu no haiku (Six Haiku)

• As the weather cools
  It is perfect out of doors
  Not too hot to work
• So much on my plate
  I’m not sure how I will cope
  But somehow, I will
• Vacuuming the floor
  A chore I greatly dislike
  But can’t let dust rule
