does it have to be specifically the animal pic or any animals in general as i have a friend who owns a reptilian animal zoo in canada that would be a thought to try writing if could.
-
good luck with the contest.
i wanted to enter but i don't write 17 syllable poems because they tend to ignore the other more important guidelines of haiku writing, which are concerned with images and juxtapositions and an aha moment.
Best wishes,
Myron -
