Last month, we asked you to describe your life in haiku form. Here are your responses.
Our charmed Boulder life:
Flowers festoon our gardens,
Art graces our home.
— Denise Perreault, of Boulder
Cancer adventure.
Deal with it, woman. You can.
Challenge empowers.
— Patience Prugh Schram, of Longmont
Nearing a new life
I wait and try to hang on
It’s all happening
— Jessica Ryan, of Loveland
Always chasing time
Hoping to catch, hold, to savor
Breathe and exhale love
— Robin Truesdale, of Boulder
I shake and shake the ketchup bottle
None will come, and then a lot.
OK, that’s so not haiku, but it rocks
— Betty Boots, of Loveland
My life effing rocks
Excitement, trouble and fun
On track to the top
I make so much sense
Cocktails inflame me verbose
Flex, lexicon, flex!
— Bree Argetsinger, of Denver
Life is contracting
And rhythmically propelling
Giving birth to me.
— Cynthia Peterson, of Idaho Springs
Strength like no other
Women hold their possessions:
The world on their head.
— Lisa Jacquay, of Loveland (from Africa)
