winter rolled out, gone.
spring swept in, bright sun, blue sky-
but tricksy came back

green snow, you look weird
better than yellow, but what???

deep freeze encrusted
window seat blocked, but sun! blue
escapes winter’s grasp

only on my desk
are you allowed; come spring, no!
be gone garden snails

i often wonder
why the couch looks like this-yikes-
playtime strikes again
playtime by Angie Quantrell
inspiration: Monet, destroyer of couch and assorted other household locations

I woke up one morning composing this haiku in my head. I was literally playing with words and counting out lines while I was in that between fully asleep and fully awake stage. That’s never happened before. I grabbed for my phone to take notes before my eyes were even fully open. LOL. My honey thought something was wrong, I grabbed the phone so fast.

Have you ever sleep-dreamed a poem or story idea?

Monet would like to know. And wonders if you have a couch she can destroy, or at the least, rearrange.
