#SenHai #Saturday #52 #poetry
Here is this week’s image to get your creative juices flowing! This image is a close-up of a white pelican’s head and neck. The eyes are yellow with black corneas, and the beak is predominantly white, with some pink, blue, yellow, and purple throughout. On the neck, there are some darker colors poking through the white hair.
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.

Senryu #52
like a beautiful
work of art, the pelican
stares out at his world
Haiku #52
pelican pauses
to look around, to be seen
in all his glory
