| The Gooseberry Garden's Poetry Picnic |
For The Gooseberry Garden a few haiku about children and their actions. It wasn't easy, but I have search my data base of haiku and found some nice haiku with children as theme (or their actions). There could be a haiku you have read earlier on this weblog, but also new ones:
on the beach
next to the prints of the little boy
an empty shell
 |
| peacock throne |
my granddaughter
wedged between the cushions
on the peacock throne
a peacock throne is a large chair with a large fan-like back
the little child sobs
'I want to cross it!' -
the rainbow bridge
on bare feet
a street urchin plays
in the snow
the pouring rain
young boys playing on the beach
soaking wet
an abandoned shell
cracks under the foot of a child -
cicadas singing
little birdie, little birdie!
the little child screams
on the golf course
look daddy!
the little child yelled
the full moon
And a last one, about questions of children.
 |
| cochlea (or snail house) |
empty cochlea
hidden under fallen leaves
'where lives that snail?'
Well I think this has to be it. Children, love them, they are so pure and honest.
Sincerely,
Until the next Poetry Picnic.
