Daycare Pick-up Haiku

In an effort to honor my word of the year, I'm trying to create more. And I'm also going to throw away some of those creations, just because I can. So here is my imperfect haiku, composed on the way to pick up my boys from daycare yesterday.

rain drops on car glass
dirty streaks streaming downward
no pink elephant

For those of you not familiar with Seattle, the Pink Elephant is a car wash and its neon sign is a landmark.

As a side note, DS1 won one of the top prizes in the all prefectural art competition for his age group. His drawing of an elephant (!) will be on display at the Yamaguchi Prefectural Art Museum from January 26 to the 31st.
