I think a little more Haiku is in order… Don’t you? Okay, seeing as how we all agree, here is my look at January in Haiku.
Make your Monday memorable,
Jake.
JANUARY IN HAIKU
January In Haiku
Christmas now over
Remittance now expected
Santa Claus now broke
………………………………………………..
A new year begins
But old habits still linger
Wait until next year.
……………………………………………………..
Post season football
Elimination for one
Joyous the other.
………………………………………………………..
Snow and icicles
Rooftop sleigh marks almost gone
Spring two months away.
……………………………………………………………
Never lasting long enough
Then winter returns.

I love this:
A new year begins
But old habits still linger
Wait until next year.
So very true!
Yeah, so much for resolutions.. But then after, all we are what we are. Aren’t we?
