Stormy Haiku!

Giant ocean swells

 Off the coast of Hawaii.

I wanna surf, Not!

There’s a place called Haiku on the Island of Maui, where surfers have named the area Jaws. This week, some of them were falling over 40 feet from the top of a wave! Here’s a 46 sec. YouTube video if you’d like to see some of the incredible footage or maybe you’d like to plan one last surfing getaway. May I suggest packing light and leaving your affairs in order? 

 I’ve never visited Maui but the name Haiku sounds inviting, as well as inspiring. Take a walk through our U.S. El Nino winter with some of my stormy Haiku.

The end of a drought

scene; quenching a thirsty state,

With giant mud-flows.

 ************  

The cliffs dissolved--

Multi-million dollar homes

Crashed into the sea.

**************

How high is the snow?

It’s a blizzard in the east

Everywhere you go.

*************** 

Our car is buried.

Someone will have to shovel.

Stop looking at me!

*************

 I’m so glad winter

Wants to finish its business--

So we can move on.
