The WEMon challenge is to write about something utterly insignificant. The #haikuchallenge word on twitter today is minute. For my first response I used the denotation of time. The Little One will be reading Inside Out & Back Again by Thanhha Lai, and she did not know we had footage of when her grandfather was in Vietnam. I dug up the VHS tape yesterday and digitalized it. Then I used the adjective definition of minute for the second haiku. Of course with no in front, it shows I do not view my coffee mug as utterly insignificant. 😉
Wow, what a video and great poems.
