January 10: Southernmost haiku

At the Key West Literary Seminar this afternoon, former US Poet Laureate Billy Collins addressed this year's theme "Shorts" by reading several haiku. Because it was Billy Collins, they were humorous haiku. My husband Paul and I were thus inspired.
 
Me:
Free bacon happy hour
with $2 cocktails--
don't hit that rooster!
 
Paul:
Eating key lime pie
we pass the all-nude strip club--
au revoir, Key West!
 
And here's a pair of mating birdwing butterflies at the Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory, for some tropical color

February 19: Happy hour

Before dinner with friends--
a strong drink shared with you,
snow falling, streetlights.
