More Haiku . . . Sorry

Desert Heat

Always a mirage--
The road to happiness: long
And never ending.

Winter

The wind blows, snow drifts.
Poor weather! It never wins.
We can wait it out.

Washing Hands

In the winter while
Washing my hands the water
Turns from cold to hot.

Drip in the kitchen
Bluejay in a barren tree
Keep pipes from freezing.

Why is haiku so fun to do? I think it's because they tend to just come to you, presenting themselves almost fully formed, arising out of a moment, very much like the moment itself.

Then you can look at it later and relive that moment, and remember that it was a moment, which in tern (no pun intended, this was supposed to be "turn") helps you to remember the present moment and come back to it quickly.

What do you think? Is this one any good? Feel free to put one of your own in comments.
