St. John Haikus

HAIKUS

inspired by our vacation

White sand under feet
Turquoise waves enticing me
A tropic delight Turning corners fast
I put my life in his hands
The St. John taxi Breathing through a tube
Fish among the coral reef
I swim with flippers
Cock-a-doodle-doo
I hate those fucking roosters
Please, please let me sleep See a quick movement
Out of the corner of my eye
A lizard runs by Come see my nice shirts
I give you two for thirty
Watch as Dave haggles
Black wings soaring high
The Magnificent Frigate bird
Flying o'er the bay Soaring pelican
Wheeling, he folds his wings
And dives for the fishies Dark cloud in the water
A long sting follow behind
The sting ray swims by
Quick! Grab that suitcase
Unsuspecting luggage thief
Now Jen has no clothes Lying on the beach
A furry body approaches
Hello there, Mongoose! Basking in the sun
Hey! Did you feel that wet drop?
Oh no! A downpour.

White sand under feet Turquoise waves enticing me A tropic delight	Turning corners fast I put my life in his hands The St. John taxi	Breathing through a tube Fish among the coral reef I swim with flippers
Cock-a-doodle-doo I hate those fucking roosters Please, please let me sleep	See a quick movement Out of the corner of my eye A lizard runs by	Come see my nice shirts I give you two for thirty Watch as Dave haggles
