Haikus

 

1.       His name was Henry.

                        My granddad was a miner,

             Hated every minute.

 

2.       What are you doing?

                          Finding my way along here.

       I want to go out!

 

3.       Allotment is good,

                                    Winding down the day in mud.

              Our lamp is a dud.

 

4.       The sun is shining,

                            Potatoes extremely tasty.

                           Lamps in the lamp room.

 

5.       Hard work allotment,

                                     Bindweed winding round my feet.

                       Stamping, Lamp in down.

 

6.       A little hedgehog,

                    Funding for a rescue:

              Every little helps.

 

7.       Burgeoning bounty,

                                 Tendrils creeping overground:

                Sun shining brightly.

 

8.       Vegetables green.

                                          Bob, bring along the miner’s lamp,

                   Light aglow at night.
