Haiku #117

Haiku #117

A haiku written back in October 2020 in memory of Tom Petty and the release of his album Wildflowers & All the Rest, which includes music left off the original album back in 1994. I did not think Wildflowers could get any better. I was wrong.

Haiku #116 (RIP EVH)

We lost Eddie Van Halen on October 6, 2020 and, truth be told, I am still processing his death. I have been Van Halen fan since I was in the ninth grade. He was a guitar virtuoso and he literally changed the way rock guitar was played.

Woke up to a surprise dusting of snow in Misawa today! It continued to spit snow off and on all day. A bit too early for my liking! I guess it is that time of year and the snow will fall…in heaps all too soon!

I heard a loud squawking of crows the other day to find a murder gathered around a crow that had died. It seemed as though they were grieving and then plotting a revenge!
