A Newport Haiku from the New England Shore Trekkers




Ferry to Newport
Saw mansions, weeping beech tree
Laundry done - catch Z’s!

Lots of ERS
No one plays cards with Sara
She wins all the time

“It’s fine” Nate exclaims
He is team: no preference
Okay Nate, it’s fine!!

Lily Amelia
Best friends who came together
But we are all friends

Molly and Phoebe
Love their saltwater taffy
They ate burgers too

Sam is asleep now
Block Island beach day sunburn
Aloe Vera helps

David tells us how
Haikus need tension resolved
