Welcome to Litsy!

And on a lighter note, I thought I‘d pay tribute to poor, doomed but insanely beautiful Mr. Pamuk. 😆😬😳

Feeling cute; might die
in an Englishman‘s house tonight —
I‘ll ask Mary! 🐎

Tears silently fell
as I drove away from you.
How did this happen?

This haiku is inspired by me trying to let go of my anxiety related to worrying too much about when people close to you talk crap behind your back (unjustly I might add). Instead of worrying about what they‘re saying I‘ll just pretend to not care anymore until it‘s actually true. We can‘t control what people do. P.S. Pardon my language 😬

You wanna talk sh*t?
Knock yourself out; it‘s not my
problem anymore.

One more before bed. I'm hooked. 🤣🤣🤣

A book I did buy from The Haunted Bookshop, Cambridge is yet another edition (my twentieth) of the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám by Edward FitzGerald.
This is a 1955 Folio Society edition, different to the other, later edition I have by them.
This one is bound in red brocade with a gold and silver floral pattern, and comes in a gold-paper covered box, rather than the gold slipcase of the later edition. Small, but perfectly formed 💖

Welcome to the @haikuhive, @kelly7990! We look forward to enjoying your haikus!

Did this one a few days ago & debated on posting it since it won‘t make much sense to you if you haven‘t seen it, but what the heck. This is from another of my favorite episodes of Mad Men, S5E10, Christmas Waltz. If you haven‘t seen Mad Men I can‘t recommend it enough!

Jaguar, jukebox, drinks —
flowers from Aly Khan; a
plate of spaghetti…

I‘m trying out haiku for the first time. I‘ve never written one before. This one is dedicated to Tom cat (the neighbor‘s cat). His owner named him Skye but we call him Tom or Tom cat. He was visiting us every day for months after my dog Toppy passed away but he doesn‘t visit anymore. This is a picture we took of him.

Tom cat doesn‘t visit my mom and I anymore.
We miss him. Where did he go?
Will he ever visit us again?

Poor Chippy, foiled yet again. 🙀

So close, yet so far…
Will this madness never end?
Sigh. I still need thumbs.
