#SenHai #Saturday #47 #poetry

Here is this week’s image to get your creative juices flowing! This picture features a flamingo dipping its beak into water. It has a black-and-white beak, toned-down pink feathers, and yellow eyes. The background is dark and blurry, the pool of water a bit lighter, showing the ripples outward where it dipped down for a drink.

Please create one senryu and one haiku to accompany this image prompt. Remember that traditional American haikus and senryus are three lines presented in a 5-7-5 syllabic pattern. The haiku describes nature or a season, and the senryu focuses on human nature and emotions.

  1. Yes, the image does give the viewer the impression he feels watched! Excellent observation, Carolyn! Your interpretation of the image in the second is wonderful. 🙂
