Two Glasses


SENSATIONAL HAIKU WEDNESDAY
asks for a haiku with the theme 'Anniversary'

TWO GLASSES

Two glasses of wine.
Both untouched by any lips.
Suddenly, you left!

(A haiku must contain three lines, with the syllabification 5,7,5)

LIFE ON A PENSION!


Granny, off on a spree one day, went zooming down the highway.
Shouting to other vehicles 'Don't dare to get in my way!
All my life I longed to drive, but no-one ever taught me!
Now I'm eighty have a look at the vehicle they've bought me!
I've put my best coat on to honour this event.
And if I bump into motor cars they'll only get a dent!
I've suddenly found freedom! The wind blows in my hair!
Well, it would if I took my scarf off! I wonder if I dare!
I sound my little hooter! I try to get up speed!
Fuel of a higher octane is the thing I really need.
I'd love to find a race-track and do 'wheelies' with the boys!
Why should only young ones have the pleasure of fast toys?
Don't try to overtake me! I have the right of way!
Yippee! I'm an Old Age Pensioner! This is my lucky day!'
