Carpe Diem Special #56
We are to write a haiku in the same tone and spirit as this one written by O. Mabson Southard:
In the garden pool,
dark and still, a steppingstone
releases the moon.
My inspired haiku:
a croaking bullfrog
in the moonlit garden pool
singing to no one
Are you SURE there's not a lady frog nearby? :)
ReplyDeleteReleasing the Moon
No one but himself... sweet and a very calm environment! I wish I was that bullfrog.
ReplyDeleteWhat is it that makes the moon need a bullfrog? Love the pairing, Maggie, and the aloneness.
ReplyDeleteoo the singing to no one line really does it for me in this one...
ReplyDeleteAh of course it does... but only he knows... great haiku
ReplyDeletehe sings to no one, but we can all hear him....
ReplyDeletepoor thing...well, maybe the moon listens. ☺
ReplyDeleteWell done haiku on Southard's haiku.
