In The Meantime... Wartime Haikus #6

I still write a haiku almost every morning, except Shabbat and Jewish Holidays. This has been going on for years. It's truly amazing how much can be communicated in just seventeen 17 syllables, 5, 7, 5. Have you tried writing them? You can think of me as "addicted." #morningcoffeehaiku 

Here are some; enjoy. I'm interested in your reactions and opinions, thanks.

thanking Gd for everyday
enjoy to the hilt🎂

Israel's enemies
don't care about history
facts get in their way

strange unsettling time
How will history report?
depends who's writing...

war will resume soon
much worse than ever for sure
deals don't make real peace

finally summer?
forecast for hot days...
dreaming of the pool....

shining sun comforts
Gd's light brings many blessings
thank Him every day...

optimistic sky
message from Gd that He's here
never give up hope

praying for good week
life's very complicated
sun's shining, good sign

despite war, life's great
sounds really impossible

barely slept last night
I guess my body didn't need sleep
things just can't control

looking for sunshine
in very difficult times
we must do Gd's will...

uncertainty reigns
true peace definitely far
VICTORY's needed

ceasefire's not true peace
every second's more danger
our enemies laugh

must be more than just a word
don't fear to WIN war

remembering friends
more killed by our enemies
true... we're still not safe

busy yesterday
funeral for friend's mother
many said goodbye

being busy's great
I'm thankful to fill my days
friends, travel, study

Haikus About War, Weather and Life

It's amazing how much can be expressed in seventeen 17 syllables... Yes, I've posted many of my haikus over the years, and I think we're due for a new haiku post. I write a haiku, posting it on Facebook, every morning besides Shabbat and Jewish Holidays when writing and posting are forbidden. Sometimes I wonder if I'm being repetitive, considering that I write hundreds each year... Wow! Even I'm impressed 🤣 Following is a variety, as promised in the title. Enjoy, and please let me know in the comments which you like and why. Thanks.

long busy day planned
thankful to Gd for my health
each day a true gift

cold, grey winter morn'
exhausted from yesterday
but was lots of fun

suddenly sunshine
see weather changing quickly

Gd created earth
but man's bad judgements cause war
VICTORY NOW, please

Holy Shabbat soon
trying to clear mind's worries
Gd willing, please help

new week, pray for change
weak leader endangers us 🇮🇱
I can't ignore it

freezing cold today
glad my plans changed to stay home
will Zoom and walk here

Thursday so quickly
week sped by and didn't do
all that I had planned

never ending war
people, nations hate us Jews
comes from them, not us

I'm a nobody
my opinion doesn't count
but I'm not quiet

I never follow

woke much too early
too frustrating forcing sleep
that refused to come

Thank Gd for Shabbat
just another few hours
special holy day...

pray for better week
may Gd gift leaders with wisdom
so far disaster

don't be fooled by words...
don't trust fancy promises
I don't see true peace...

Israel's enemies
want to believe all those lies
truth ruins their story
