2nd-ever Airstream haiku contest ....
.... dedicated to defending champ(s?) MAXANDGEORGIA
My entry is a two-parter, does that count? i know, it's a new art form: Epic haiku!
Cats everywhere
Working at home on snow days
Is overrated
Working at home, thoughts
Turn to Bambi far away
New hitch on at least

haiku
Overlander waits,
Water heater needs repair,
To broke to fix it.
Will wife understand,
when the shower runs so cold,
I must run and hide.

Beneath snow blanket
Globetrotter waits for summer,
Longs to be restored

Gypsy chafes to roam~
Winding roads and rushing streams,
Winter Airstream dreams.

Epic Haiku
Yes I do have to much time on my hands.
This one is dedicated to all of those little lost trailers out there,(back behind that old barn, or at the edge of that overgrown field,) that are just waiting for one of us to give them some ALUMILUV.
A silver misfit
lonely, tarnished and unkept,
an ugly duckling.
Up out of the mud
come back to the road with me
I will take you home.
You will have a name,
so much care and attention,
once more you shall shine.
Then the road will call,
you will turn every head,
sparkle in thier eyes.
No longer ugly,
gleaming like a flashing star.
You, The Silver Swan.

My shower is gone,
haven't finished the floor
and all my screens are torn.
No fridge for my food,
no couch for my seat
and no place to eat.

Dreams of a journey
Sun warms the aluminum
Where will we go now?

Airstream haiku, odd
Habit fills valuable time
Go polish instead.

Compose with Cyclo!

Silver home outside
Storm clouds gather in the air
I pray "Please no hail".
Dents and dings galore
Insurance agent just sighs
Premium will rise.
or
Metal house on wheels
Freedom on the open road...
"You got full hook ups?"
Is my hitch just right?
Perhaps I need a new truck?
Nah. I'll just drive slow.

Janet:
Thanks for the welcome
I've lurked and learned for some time
Haikus make me post.
Our Bambi is new
Nineteen feet long and shiny
Hope we'll use it lots.
Doing shakedown stuff
Preparing for a long trip
Yellowstone and more.
We have two children
The Bambi is kind of small
Good thing we're all short.
