Hindsight

Come to think of it
I probably shouldn’t have
Told the goat story

Three Years Old

By lifting our pints
And reciting poetry
We mark a great day

Written by Captain Hops

Remember Them All

For the ones you know
And the ones you’ll never meet
Give a solemn toast

Celebrating Life, Love, and Happiness

Gathered together
Under the magnolias
To celebrate life

Skiing

Snow falling lightly
The sun is bidding farewell
Skis off…beer opened

Watching the skiers
From my balcony above
Celebrating life!

“Join me for a beer”
I yell to the passer-bys
Too tired to hear me

I sit once again
Reminiscing ’bout the slopes
And toast the mountains!

Written by Tammie Wright.

References: Four haiku. One story.

Cheers!

They finally got hitched!
All toast the happy couple
again and again…

Dedicated to JJ and Jennifer.
