Poem a day? Four catches me up.

I'm in a Haiku mood, today.
---------------------------------


melon in white bowl
gathering juice pools beneath
wet treats, Spring evening.


--------------------------------

lone crow rides the fence
issuing sharp challenges
to the empty field.


-----------------------------------------------

a swaying mem'ry--
industrious bee works on
freshly hung laundry

----------------------------------------

blue or brown eyelash
silly choice, silly reasons
marketed time-suck.

Just one of my favourite haikus ever!

He's 'lone' and 'riding' like a cowboy. And he comes over like a retired colonel who's gone a bit soft in the head ... 'issuing' is perfect ...

Thank you! I rather like the image myself-- luckily, the crow in question gave me the idea.
