(I tried to write a haiku for it has not been since junior high when I learned how to write these kinds of poems. I hope I am close. Let me know and leave a comment truly appreciated.)
About the Creator
Mark Graham
I am a person who really likes to read and write and to share what I learned with all my education. My page will mainly be book reviews and critiques of old and new books that I have read and will read. There will also be other bits, too.

Children's Literature
There is nothing better than a children's book. There are many lessons that one can learn from these kinds of books both for children and adults. There are mysteries, stories dealing with friendships, family and even personal issues. There are even nonfiction books that teach various skills from health and nutrition to even birth and death that are done in a conversational tone using vocabulary that children know and use.

A Jerk and an Idiot Meet in a Bar
A Jerk and an Idiot Meet in a Bar Well not in a bar, per se, social media. After all, it is the bar of our modern times. It’s where we hook up with friends, family, dates, or trysts. Places like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and others, all designed for social interaction with anonymity and limited consequences, for bad behavior. Often these entities dole out consequences to parties that are not causing a problem, and give a blind eye to serious problems.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.

And thus, we also become an open book full of so much knowledge from reading and learning from that we read...........
Glad you take a step on writing it .
A beautiful sentiment - I really like it. Aren’t haikus usually 5 / 7 / 5 syllables though?
Not bad, but you don't need a period in the second line (it interrupts the flow).
