Silly Haiku Wednesday
Welcome to “Silly Haiku Wednesday!”
Click here for info and background on this weekly event!
The basics:
Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)
This week’s theme is: Time
My submission for this week:
Watch days flying by
Fleeting days of babies grown
A certain sadness
Next week’s theme: Passion – what are you passionate about?
Note: Nothing makes me happier than to see new people getting “hooked on haiku”! Keep it going to make it to the Hooked on Haiku List

This is excellent. It is so true and it happens so fast. Excellent my friend. Have a great Wednesday :)

So true, I try to remind myself of that as much as possible.

this one got me thinking …
your reflection is terrific!
.-= LarryG´s last blog ..Time =-.
Awwww… I FEEL that! Whenever I’m asked if I “miss” anyone right now, I always say I miss my babies! I used to really WISH that we could have the LAST one stay little forever. But now that they’re all grown… I see that a little differently! :)

As I promised, I tried my best. This is my first entry, not sure it is so called “Haiku”. But I like the theme, “TIME”, What I see in life

Yes. Absolutely the cruelest game played by mistress time.
So figurative!
A bittersweet reflection!
I miss babies, too!

Back again, Jenn! Last week I might have written these differently — I guess it all depends on your perspective!

It’s fun to see the kids as they become their own people, with quirks and whatnot. :)
Next week’s haikus might be racey! :o

Jenn — sorry I’m late. I’ve been distracted by water woes! Pipes are fixed and we’re “flush” again. ;)
Your haiku has long been every parent’s lament. Too soon grown and gone.
As a new mom I totally am feeling your haiku right now! I never really realized how fast time flies until I had my baby! Thanks again for hosting such a fun weekly challenge!

I can’t reall attach anything to my blog, but neither acn a pass up the opportunity fo a haiku :) so here’s mine:
Moments slip forward/
Connected by memories/
Of a past presence
I know all about those “fleeting days of babies grown” hopefully I will grow with them (my own 18 & 15)not grow away from them!
Excellent theme, and beautifully executed by you :)
Sorry I’m so late today. Time, it’s always to blame.
