Puzzling Haiku

Saturday, February 23rd, 2008

Puzzle completed.
One lonely piece left over.
Unsolved mystery.

(Inspired by this Weekend Wordsmith prompt: Unneeded Puzzle Piece. And speaking of prompts, I’ve posted a new poetry prompt whose theme is time.  I hope you’ll give it a try.)

Games People Play … At Meetings

Games People Play … At Meetings
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Buzzword bingo’s a game workers play
To record pompous things people say:
With a buzzword list near,
They mark jargon they hear,
In their quest to keep boredom at bay.

(My previous humor about meetings is here.

I’m Not Bowled Over By Bowling

Monday, February 26th, 2007

The last time I went bowling, I aimed my ball so badly, it went flying diagonally and landed in a neighboring lane. (On the other hand, I’m not half-bad at Wii-Bowling.)

I’m Not Bowled Over By Bowling
By Madeleine Begun Kane

Don’t ask me to bowl. I’m the worst.
When I try to, I’m bound to be cursed.
Other bowlers complain:
“You must aim for your lane!”
No more bowling, unless I’m coerced.
