My haiku habit (week 2)

by

Starring out from the bridge

White sea foam churning
A wave breaking on the bow
Like moving marble.

Before the crew comes to work on deck

The seas have calmed down
Waddling on my sea legs
Doing 10K steps.

 


Doing stomach flips

Seas are unfriendly
Not as tall as a building
Still somewhat scary.

A missed opportunity

It’s stopped raining
A walk or finish my tea
Is that a question?

 


A wonderful birthday present

Sunrise in Narvik
This is my first time and last
Only now that counts.

 


Nestled in Narvik

Finally anchored
Basketball on deck
Karaoke pure.

 


A poetic moment

On my morning walk
Lone pair of shoes sunbathing
Such hard days of work.
