Tricia (The Miss Rumphius Effect) challenged us to write haiku riddles based on the book If Not for the Cat by Jack Prelutsky. I shared that book on this blog a while back.
Here are two I wrote this week:
thin spaghetti legs
neck, limber long gathers fish
graceful in flight
grey scarf of dawn
weaves diamond dewdrops in, out
top fir boughs vanish
Do you know what they are? Did you guess Blue Heron and Fog? Lots of great poetry can be found at Susan Taylor Brown.
This is a cross posting and uses the word “fog” from One Single Impression. Another fog poem can be found here.
