The Arrival (haiku)

Missing image




Red breast stands lone quard
on discarded garden fork
waiting for wise men




Author notes

"This is a great from of poetry that flows from my thoughts,though the picture I see is greater,I have summed it all up beautifully in such short verse."

      Lol, the birds we have here steal from the dog bowls It would be no good feeding seeds as the local councils have forbidden the feeding of birds as it encourages rats...not that we have rats as we have cats who also steal from the dogs bowls The only things that eat seeds here are the cockatil and budgies, that would also eat the dogs food given half a chance

    A good strong haiku, excellent visuals and the subtle implication in L3 works very well.

    Good luck in the contest.
