SENSATIONAL HAIKU & WHIMSICAL WEDNESDAY~12
Little things in life
Often taken for granted
Change your perception
It's as simple as
The miracle of waking
Each and ev'ry morn
Moment by moment
Not just special occasions
Life in all its forms
CELEBRATE

…and onto some weird, whacky and sometimes wonderful words (from the dag's dictionary)…
Cellulights – the especially harsh lights found in fashion-shop changing rooms designed to prove you must cover your body at all times, preferably with their overpriced clothes.
Dialiloquy – a message to oneself, left on one's own answering machine as a reminder to do something, which is delivered in a strangely intimate and loving voice.
Taggadocio – vain, empty boasting by means of wearing clothes with a visible brand name.
Lovely pieces of encouraging advice in your haiku!
We tend to celebrate the momentous occasions and take the simple, everyday things for granted… thanks Gemma!
Lovely poem. I llke your definitions, too!
Thanks for the kind words Sherry…
Ah, perception, something we do have control over. I am guilty of the dilaliloquy. Love the whacky words.
Thanks Leslie. So you're one of the guilty "dialiloquy dames" *chuckles* Although I'm thinking, the answering machine could come in quite handy for taping bursts of writing inspiration which may descend at odd times and in odd places… 🙂
Inspiring Haiku. you have a way with words. And the dag words , the first one had me laughing.
