Shoppers rush and shop

Traffic jams and drivers fret

Scenes of the season

Rush, curse, and fill up on stress

Holiday's true meaning lost

    Something about the flow of the tanka captured that whole sequence wonderfully, an excellent read.

    I do not do the shopping like that. All of mine is done for the most part on this computer. I have been doing it for years and it beats that mess at the stores. Of course there is those little bit of things for last minute gifts needed to pick up at the stores. Great little Haiku

    Blessings

    I rarely participate in the stampede, which frees me to clean, cook, and enjoy music from my library.
