Today’s Jumble haiku:
ReplyDelete“A Fun Edition”
This maize is flinty,
iconic of a gritty
sort of shrouded ears.

Some things are truly a matter of fact.
Scientific! —they’re completely far from abstract.
Whether citing theory or a datum, one must always be “….. .”

Betty and Becky were together for years
ReplyDeleteTheir comedy brought audiences to tears!
But vaudeville died,
And so they cried
At the demise of the extinct act of theirs!

When the harvest is in its last days
ReplyDeleteOne field may be left standing tall.
Then mowers come, cut thru this wall,
Leaving behind an amazing maize maze!
The farmer's had a year to plan it out,
A devious labyrinth, with cul de sacs.
Moving forward may require back tracks
Finding a way by a different route.
The Maze Master, with a heart of flint
Gives hope of freedom from this distress,
Then dashes it with loops in this iconic nest!
Some folks definition of fun, this isn't!
At last they're out, but just how is shrouded --
So they'll try again if it's not too crowded!
I didn’t think my poem needed a backstory, but perhaps it helps to know the corn felt “sandy” to the bite, suggesting it had gone off—in a defunct sort of way.

Fun Edition
ReplyDeleteIt was an exact copy
Of the iconic Shroud of Turin.
But it was full of lint
We were amazed our joke was believed.
"Amazing"
ReplyDeleteWe were amazed to find the maize
in our garden had become a craze.
And we still don't have a hint,
why it appeared next to the flint.
The whole business was ironic
and certainly not iconic.
We refused to have the maize plowed
since it did nothing shroud.
In the end it was a fun condition
that gave our garden a new definition.
I hope, Misty, your gardeners made a mint from their popular maize.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that what good capitalists do? --once their product catches on as a "craze"?
If it was such a true copy, CEh, no matter with added lint, doesn't that mean folk are now believing there are TWO Shrouds of Turin?
What do the legends say about that? Was He wrapped up twice?

Ol' Man Keith, how could ears be covered by something gritty? With sandpaper, maybe? Hope that never happens to any of us.
ReplyDeleteBut your Wordle hint this morning was a delightful gift! Thank you so much for that!

CanadianEh!,
ReplyDeleteSo sorry that the story of the Turin Shroud
will always be covered by a cloud.
Wilbur, we hope you're still able to read,
ReplyDeleteand we hope you're recovery will succeed.
Ol' Man Keith,
ReplyDeleteYou deserve a verse from me too
since every morning you hive us a haiku.
OMKx I swear I didn’t see your title before I made mine. I was pressed for time today and no rhymes came to mind. I must admit that my premise is a little thin.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed how you all took MAISE and maze.
I may not be here much for the next week. Grandchildren are coming and I will be “up to my ears”. (Yes that is a corny pun!)
Hi, wanted to tell you all that I'll be out of town tomorrow (Saturday) and may not be able to check in till late, or at all. Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteThose "ears" were of maize, Misty, corny as that may seem...
