Hay Rides: A Haiku & Sketch


Sketch of a hay bale next to the text of a haiku poem that reads "The hay is scratchy, / poking my legs through thick jeans. / Pretend to have fun"

The hay is scratchy,

poking my legs through thick jeans.

Pretend to have fun


Today's haiku is brought to you by the fact that I oddly never liked hay rides. Sensory overload, itchy, uncomfortable, awkward. I knew I was supposed to have fun, but I never did.


This year for 13 Days 13 Shorts, I'm going back to my roots with a daily haiku - potentially paired with an original sketch if my time and sanity allows.
