Monday morning haiku: April 9th
Incongruity:
See the water crystallize
See him mow his lawn
See the water crystallize
See him mow his lawn

You had to work today? Don't you get Easter Monday off as a Stat in Chicago or do you get Good Friday? In England they get both, but in Scotland we only get Easter Monday. Hey, I'll take what I can get.
Dear Mr. Monn Tippley,
I think you have captured this crazy day quite well - -the first day of spring (well, post Easter) and yet freezing temps and snow flurries. I think you are a very talented fellow, a refreshingly good haikuist. Tell me, though, how tall are you?
Chris: We get neither day off of work. (sigh)
GT: Thank you and I hope you learn my name soon.
Nice.
I love the word "crystallize." It's almost onomatapoeic.
I agree with heartinsanfrancisco.
The word crystallize adds on dimension to your portable haiku. It sparkles! :-)
Wow your people are slave driver's, working both sides of a holiday, good job you're leaving in FOUR days time ( ;
I like the haiku, maybe you could do a whole Incongruity series.
HinSF: I like that word, too...
Susan: Thanks. It is portable, isn't it?
Verilyon: We shall see. I'm not a big fan of doing theme work, but it's a nice way to fill up a first line, huh?
Or it could be a theme for an upcoming competition... Not that I'm thinking about it or planning anything...
