Yesterday was yet another Coterie luncheon with Lady Hotchkiss and Domina Dea. The major topic of discussion was DomCon, where the three of us will be presenting. If you plan to attend, please let us know.
Anywhoo, they had a grand old time teasing me about haikus. Domina Dea had posted a haiku challenge and encouraged me to post one too. I’m not a poetry kind of gal but I couldn’t resist attempting something that seemed a bit complex at the time.
I wrote this sitting outside on the deck. It is overcast and the color of the woods has turned from green to caramel.
Fly by Hai
The leaves are falling slowly
Summer flew by much too fast
Ice will freeze and sheathe
I owe one with an S&M theme. *shakes head*
