Description MARCH 1

A flick of the wrist
Brings February to a close;
Let's see what March brings.


MARCH 2

Birds sink in the mud
looking for spring sustenance
Outside my window.

MARCH 3

Spring break begins now;
Everyone's having fun at
The beach except me.

MARCH 4

Rain pours from above
A flash of red flies away;
First March Cardinal.

MARCH 5

Temperature's rising
Higher, then lower again;
"Old Man" hates the cold.

MARCH 6

Thousands of chuckles
Break through the dark clouds of group
dissent- tour's over.

MARCH 7

Mouse clicks compete with
The TV as I spend time
Spying on Facebook.

MARCH 8

Sheer boredom brings out
The obscure pleasures-movie
Unwrapping eunni.

MARCH 9

Eddie Izzard brings
Mirth to an otherwise dull
Homecoming car ride.

MARCH 10

Lifeless lectures that
Make interesting subjects as
Bland as gray Jell-O.

MARCH 11

Nothing can top the
Elation I've been feeling-
Shoes came in the mail.

MARCH 12

Sunshine pours down from
The heavens above me; March-
Year of the skater.

MARCH 13

Mallets flying back
And forth across the wood keys-
"Night on Bald Mountain".

MARCH 14

Some guy's crooning on
A CD about love and
Apples-could be worse.

MARCH 15

Paper's done-story's
Done.  Nothing else planned for a
Saturday like this.

MARCH 16

Today is the day
Perhaps better spent watching
Quality TV.

MARCH 17

Strange baby names, green
Clothing, ABBA's loss, Peaceful
Naps-Happy Monday.

MARCH 18

Nothing can contain
The sheer joy I'm feeling now-
"The Riches" tonight.

MARCH 19

Sometimes life is just
So much better spent coloring
A pretty picture.

MARCH 20

The sun comes out and
Stays out for longer than an
Hour.  Spring has arrived.

MARCH 21

High schoolers close their
Eyes and tap their feet to feel
Jazz's sensual touch.

MARCH 22

She's coming all this
Way to come spend quality
Time with me--my mom.

MARCH 23

Nothing says Easter
Like sitting on the couch and
Watching "Heathers".

MARCH 24

Unseasonal snow
Makes me scratch my head with all
Those questions, like "Why?"

MARCH 25

There are just not the
Right amount of hours in the
Day to allow food.

MARCH 26

Though your funeral
Was "botched" and unusual, your
Passing is still felt.

MARCH 27

Unclear poetry
Schedules make me want to
Pull my hair out hard.

MARCH 28

Fan-girls squee with pure,
Unbridled joy as Sweeney
Todd steps onto screen.

MARCH 29

Between Hell's Angels
And learning there's Communist
Batman, day's filled.

MARCH 30

My cousin turns 21
Today and I have yet to
Send birthday wishes.

MARCH 21

The fool prepares for
His day by blowing a kiss
To his old pal March.

I know. I got so excited when I saw the KGB Batman action figure and he was actually scowling.

Yeah, I've just been really lazy this weekend and haven't felt the need to get up and get my notebook so I can finish the haikus.

I feel bad for the guy because no one pays attention in class, but he rambles on about nothing that goes along with the original topic. It's maddening!

While you're enjoying your haiku, those poor little birds are going to get stuck, and maybe eaten by some sort of raccoon or the like.

Then the raccoon can come up to my room and wash my dishes for me.

Nice start.... How quickly a whole month of living can be tossed.

Oh I know. It's almost like that entire month was a waste of time, just because you ripped it off the wall.

Within the snap of a hand an entire month of life is gone forever. Almost depressing really...
