A rough Haiku based on a few personal 🤬 viewpoints...

A Child's Safety Is Worth A Ban on Assault Rifles!

A Child's Peace Of Mind Is Worth Firearm Regulations!

There Is Nothing That Can Justify Placing A Child's Life In Jeopardy!

✊🏼🦅🇺🇸✌🏼🇺🇲.

This has been languishing on my currently reading shelf for 6 months 😬 Finally sat down & finished it yesterday. Would recommend to movie buffs, especially Old Hollywood and/or if you have an interest in French New Wave films. 4⭐️

a must-watch list of
classic French films — grab popcorn,
we‘re off to the movies. 🍿🎥

One Tuesday Morning | Karen Kingsbury
post image

where were you that day
when it all went away — the
world that we once knew.

day of infamy,
thousands lost — landscape of our
world forever changed.

I have that morning burned into my memory. I was a senior in a private high school & we were in chapel. One of my teachers came in to tell us what happened. We had his class next hour & sat there listening to the towers collapse on the radio. #neverforget ♥️🤍💙

CBee Thank you for posting this. It seems like it‘s being overshadowed by other news today and we must #neverforget. I was 24, and when I saw it on TV I thought it was an action movie at first 😢 18h
Cuilin @CBee agreed. It was my due date, I was convinced I would go into labor. My husband had an interview in a tower in Boston. They called and canceled it as they were evacuating all tall buildings in the city. Such a sad day #NeverForget. @JenlovesJT47 lovely tribute 18h

CBee @Cuilin I can‘t imagine being pregnant on that day! And your due date! Wow. 18h
ImperfectCJ I was at work, and we followed it on the radio then on TV before we were sent home. My dad worked in the Pentagon, so it was a relief when we could finally get through by phone and confirm he was okay. (His section of the building was under construction, so he was working off-site, but I didn't know that until the evening.) Thank you for posting this. 18h
JenlovesJT47 @CBee I spent the morning watching news footage on YouTube, don‘t know why I do this to myself every year but we must #neverforget 🫂♥️🤍💙 18h
JenlovesJT47 @ImperfectCJ that‘s so scary that he worked at the Pentagon! There‘s not tons of footage from there so I don‘t know much about it but I‘m glad he wasn‘t there. Such an awful day 🫂♥️💙🤍 18h
JenlovesJT47 @Cuilin being pregnant and that being your due date on top of everything, I can‘t imagine. Glad your husband wasn‘t there. So awful. 🫂♥️🤍💙 18h

The flag at my workplace on 9/11/25.

On a bright clear day
Two planes in New York, then smoke
Seen from my window

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Today‘s haiku was inspired by my morning commute to Hilo which looks pretty much the same each week so that it feels like I‘m doing it by rote.

Muscle Memory

Autopilot drive
TSA, Starbucks, lounge, fly…
Weekly sky commute

Rainy Afternoons | Megan Plude

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Today‘s haiku is inspired by a small rainstorm this afternoon that really made me want to read or take a nap, but alas, there was too much work to do to give into the temptation.🌧️

Afternoon rain storm
Soft strikes against the skylight
Rest calls, I resist

TheBookHippie Ack … rainy days and naps are perfection. 2d

Oh, how I love these books. I have all of du Jardin's books. They're loaded with 1950s nostalgia from the point of view of young women. The Pam & Penny series is my favorite, and I usually revisit these every couple of years. 🧡💜💛
