Haiku 1

the wind sings a dirge
through reeds where the heron stalks
a frog's funeral.

    But yummy?

    A meal's funeral is another's feast.

    Dear Diana,

    Welcome back to the Group with this excellent haiku.
    I wonder if it's the same frog that Sir Ima saw with its tongue stuck in ice? I guess not because herons fly north when the freeze comes. LOL.
    Good luck in the contest.
    Applause, love and hugs, Hugh (R.)

    I like the concept of "a time and place for every purpose under heaven" infused in this wonderous haiku.
