You eat yours, I’ll eat mine: a haiku for quiet self-indulgence

I realized today that I haven’t blogged in about four weeks. Not that anyone is counting…even me, until today. I had a goal to blog every other week just to keep writing (a blog isn’t a blog without at least a touch of ego) and maybe provide something that might spark interest in at least one other person.

Frankly, I haven’t been all that inspired lately for creative writing. Not sure how I feel about it. It’s more an observation.

Pushing through the fog, here’s a haiku about a moment of quiet self-indulgence with some house finches.

You eat yours, I’ll eat mine

finches nip safflower
senses graze on chocolate
tacit harmony
