Daily Haiku prompt 02/02/25: Seed

You sit on a loaf
You could have been a whole tree
Gone in one quick bite

I wrote this about my friend's dog for #dailyhaikuprompt 17/11/24 - "Coat"

You rest by me, dog,
Sleek orange and white fur close,
You're so very warm.

Like a tree drops leaves
So too the moon drops its shine
To grow once again

#dailyhaikuprompt - "new moon"

Raise hell to keep warm
Or freeze facing a hail storm...
Now to get steamy!

A cupful topples,
So sop on up; the mop’s full,
Spill a lil’ plopple.

Went for a nonsense verse with this one πŸ˜†β€‹ Thanks @aethelshane for the prompt 'topple'.

They say continents
Move as fast as our nails grow.
No, they're not timeless.

Thanks @aethelshane for the prompt, 'timeless'.

Teacher showed a plant -
sickly - trapped in a dark box,
fierce growth seeking light.

Thanks @aethelshane for the prompt: 'sickly'

Deep ruts have been tilled,
Dull routines etched in my mind;
Thoughts rebel like weeds.

#575prompt - 'tilled'

True story: there’s no such theory as β€œFlat Earth”. There are in fact dozens of competing and contradictory Flat Earth theories and frankly none of them are even half as believable as either Terry Pratchett or The Silmarillion.
