Non sequitur haikus

Hey did you feel that?
Does Missouri have earthquakes?
Yes. Why, yes we do.

The New Madrid Fault.
Google it and you will see -
The Heartland rocks, too!

Fine how do you do
These pictures only this week
Magnitude 1 plus

That New Madrid Fault
Goes right under hospital
It’s not far from here

So how did it feel?
Have you been through one before?
A 4 is quite stout!

Is it thundering?
Truck rolling around the house?
Suddenly, bed jumps!

Sleeping cat jumps up;
Frowning, looks all around her!
Nervous dog paces.

"Earthquake?" asks DH.
Shrugging, Guess I reckon so.
Ears pop, slight headache.

And no, I haven't,
Not since, um,* about age ten,
In home town Denver.

*Use of "um" as a filler is probably cheating, but best I could do. Sorry!

As time permits us
Audio delays happen
& ‘um, fill the bill

You are just too kind!
And a true inspiration!
Appreciate you.

Well I’m going outside now.

I’m not sure y’all will
do as I say, instead I’ll
suggest, Just Play nice.

As darkness returns
Sleep will be restless for sure
Time, unforgiving

 

[Sally PB]

Way too much darkness!
I could not live there, for sure;
Go stark, raving mad!

It’s two days a year
Technically speaking of course;
But, there’s more to say

counting the hours
I believe the “shortest day”
2 or 3 hours?

yet, conversely true
The longest summer day is
20-ish hours
