First, before the crowd
Fulfills an obligation
A sense of success
A motivation
First on Brian’s or Pat’s
Mary beats them all
Gold silver and bronze
Brian swept them all before, but
Mary just took
‘one’
But some got on first
Did not realize others are
Lurking in the wings
Written for Haiku Heights # 153 with prompt - first-
Hey, I am first?
ReplyDeleteThey are great and I appreciate them too ~
Cool, and I like the illusion to the olympics with your gold, silver and bronze
ReplyDelete:)
The linked rings of triumph shine throughout your haiku!
ReplyDeleteLMAO yes Mary is so contrary and Brian is such a gawker, making one be a stalker. Pat hmmm don't know about him and that cat haha
ReplyDeletewell penned haiku on 'first' ~~ thanks, ^_^ (A Creative Harbor)
ReplyDeleteGreat running theme with these haiku Hank. I must write more haiku soon.

ReplyDeleteYes, you're first. The 3 wonderful people have been neck-to-neck. It's fun to be in the fray wherever possible.

Yes, in reference to Brian who was a few times 1st 2nd 3rd at Pat's

PAT
Mary is tops lately and Brian's presence is always felt nearby

Thanks Ma'am

Haiku is fun. No rhyming and just one 5-7-5 is acceptable. Will join in whenever possible. Thanks Ma'am!
Hank
Very interesting set as usual! gr8 writing :)
ReplyDeleteFirst peek of loving future
haha....this is a trip...smiles...pat surely started all this mess....i am just racing to keep up...and mary gives me a smile every saturday...and gloria shortly behind always saying hi to mary...nice hank...great saturday!
ReplyDeleteAh, Hank, this makes me smile. It does seem, doesn't it, that some of us have a light-hearted competition. I am seldom first at Pat's site; often first at Brian's. But what is important, I think, is that we support one another and visit one another and encourage one another. More important than who is first...but I admit it IS fun to be first.
ReplyDeleteYou are spot on, Ma'am! I would be extremely happy if I get to be first! I'm lurking in the background. Whenever Brian's or Pat's posting appears at my bloglist I would quickly check. Lately I've missed by a whisker a few times. At the same time I'm happy as friendly people got on earlier. Yes, it's fun,certainly! Thank you Mary!

ReplyDeleteThank you! Will check it out!
BRIAN
It's a provocation! Pat somehow gets away with lots of things. It keeps things alive that's for sure. Thanks!
