PENNY HAIKU DOODLES (1-20)
By Steve Plonk
1) craft of poetry
is words to kiss
biz
2) cup on table
lush aroma
of coffee
3) black umbrella
sits forlornly
awaiting rain
4) cookbook has
scents of attempts
on recipes
5) teabag knick-knacks
‘will hold teabag’
As they say
6) phone sits
like a poised
clapper under
A bell
7) old man
tells of surviving
years of doodles
(8) ‘doodle-bug’
says Tom,
is name of poem.
9) Sunday sidewalk
says “Bill & Mary waited
In the sand”
10) I came running
absurdly smiling
thru blanket fog
11) hoot is name
of our wise-pinned
wall hanging by Mark.
12) childlike at times
come sketches
called doodles
13) night time...
I wish a star
would fall
14) men & women
touch & fondle
joy of nearness
15) ties of railroad
tracks smell
of molded pitch
16) Is that a bum
I see basking
In the sun?
17) Yes, he is
a blissful
merry bum.
18) yes, she says,
the room is dark
but I conserve
my light
for darker days
19) Y’know there are
so many gals I let go
of in life—
it’s great to hold a wife/
20) Our lives are
a Carolina beach
Blanket fog
warm & cuddly
As that mist/
Circa Spring 1978, Revised October 2010.
