road grading... potholes revealed under packed snow
Link with 901: Pulled back
[The road was a little bumpy but the packed snow filled all the potholes. Now, after the snow has been cleared the potholes will begin to emerge and we'll be back to little bumps again, at least until the next snow storm.]
From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

or more likely the snow will dig them a little deeper and a little more bumpy --
one bad thing on top of another!
they'r always down there somewhere
cheers
Not as much a problem in the South. You can only hide things for so long.
I really enjoy your poetic eye for the prosaic detail, Vaughn
enjoyed the bumpy ride :)
Andrew: Very well said!
Floots: Yes, they just seem to breed on their own (especially in places with cold winters).
Pat: You're right about hiding things for only so long...reminds me of other areas of one's life.
Bill: Thank you Bill...I keep an eye open for the uncommon and exceptional but sometimes all there is to see are mundane, ordinary things.
Polona: Thanks. :-)
