Ernesto Cisneros delivers a fun time travel book that takes 12 year old Queso back to 1985 where he gets to spend time with his father at the same age. Imagine getting to help your parent as one of their peers, and doing it during the 80’s. This one sucked me in.

resting weary head making do with what he has dreaming of the couch #haikusaturday

watching the action lots of sparkles zipping by don’t know what this is #haikuSaturday

off in the distance past the parched terrain waiting white snow capped mountains #haikuSaturday

hiding from world found this quiet spot to rest tucked away at peace #haikuSaturday

best part of Vegas not found under flashing lights outside with the birds #haikuSaturday

sometimes it’s only a small prickly thing standing in front of the fall #haikuSaturday

End of year goal: read 7 books in 26 days to hit 100 for 2025. This gem by Christy Wopat is up next. There are writers who read and then people like me: readers who write. There is something special about books read by the Christmas tree.

morning sun rises shaking off frosty blanket zestful beginning #haikuSaturday

start of a journey headed for an adventure Bags and mind ready #haikuSaturday

morning yoga time not a fan of downward dog prefers to just watch #haikuSaturday

meander through trees sheathed in all their autumn best follow golden trail #haikuSaturday

leafy fall backdrop yellow with a tinge of green highlights true beauty

silent rock watching resting amongst the flowers greeter at the beach #haikuSaturday

ocean bubble bath wind and waves disturb water sea foam sweeps ashore #haikuSaturday

new word for old dog beach added to vocab list morning game changer #haikuSaturday

living on the edge unable to take the next step rooted to this spot #HaikuSaturday

when the clouds roll in morning sun is pushed aside day calls for muffins #haikusaturday

just waiting to play me and my ball will be here ready when you are #haikuSaturday

lookout on duty keeping eye out for danger bright spot of color #haikusaturday

setting sun’s waning light still pushing through smoky clouds scorching day closing

giant wish waiting to take flight with secret hopes carried in the breeze

peeking around trees morning light beckons to me through the wispy clouds #haikuSaturday

someone has their ducks all in a row on the dash directing the ride

lounging together in the coolness of the shade best buds united #haikuSaturday

sunshine from above is all it takes to flourish no matter the base

hidden behind clouds concealed sunlight staying strong still seeks to shine down #haikuSaturday

under speckled sky stuffing shaken from dog toy splendid summer day

dog bed begs for use soft grass beckons from nearby yet, rocky path wins #haikuSaturday

air heavy today full of possibilities lurking all around

best part of the walk sitting in the shade after enjoying summer #haikuSaturday

defying nature afternoon storm did its best couldn’t quell the bloom

don’t let her fool you instigator of trouble sweet little kitten

silence of the day broken with a melody turtle swims in breeze #haikuSaturday

sun shines from above weight of winter pulls away feel myself grow tall

stepped in a painting surprise view along my path picture perfect day #haikuSaturday #montreal

not invited here crashing the garden party bringing all the joy

kickoff to summer swimsuit and flip-flops ready but where is the sun #haikuSaturday

swimming all alone disrupting morning calmness searching for others

another lake walk turquoise sky mirrored below start of sunny day #haikusaturday

waiting for wishes that can be carried away secrets in the breeze

after snowy months before sweltering season perfect lilac days #haikuSaturday

winter’s last holdout defiantly standing tall waving bare branches

spring has sprung a leak leftover winter seeped in sun fixing problem #haikuSaturday

there’s always that one willing to be different secretly revered

with every new bloom I feel my soul burst free shedding winter’s weight

oh to be a tree exfoliate what is old and start fresh again #haikuSaturday

blue skies overhead mirrored in water below place to sit and think

brothers united looking out for each other enough treats for all #haikuSaturday

greetings all around birds calling out as we pass spring songs brighten mood #haikuSaturday
