the bird's privacy
I invade with my camera
her voice doesn't break
no song does she sing
despite my patient waiting
snubbly she looks on
Today's specials are inspired by Chiyo-ni's The flowering branch of the plum. Check out Carpe Diem to learn more about this influential Haiku poet. I was particularly inspired by the common sentiment at the time of her writing 'In regard, to requiting evil with good'.
very cute, the bird certainly knows how to acts pricey.
ReplyDeleteI guess she wasn't in the mood to sing then !!!
ReplyDeleteThe unbroken voice of the bird--it sings in my heart!
