I feel your pain. Excerpted here are four haiku from my Rehabilitation
Haika, previously posted (only this was North Carolina, season of
January):
Shovels slice the earth
Cold rain sludges the footing:
Concrete is delayed.
Shovels scrape footing
Rain scrape rain water freezes:
Footing scraped again.
Icy rain fills hole
Drudgery sludgery gone:
Sunshine dries the soil.
Hole swallows concrete
Low sun brightens smiling face--
Mason happy man.
