5 - 7 - 5
Haiku are a form of Japanese poetry that are written in three lines with a syllable count of five, seven, five. But don't let that stop you writing whatever you like. There are no fascists here and any contribution you wish to make is welcome. Here we seek the sublime, and if we can't have that, we'll just have a laugh. It's all good.
With the current picture as your inspiration, pile in to the comments and have a go. At the end of the week I pick five and put them on the front page.
As the Japanese say - Let's enjoyment haiku!

I couldn't help myself...
It is quite simple
I like the peace and quiet
In my own fishbowl
I can't catch those fish!
I can sit here and watch them
But I can't catch them

FB
My own bubble world
Sitting in the catbird seat
Waiting for the catfish
Summer by the pool.
I'm tanned and reading Nietszche,
while the cat skin dives
der schutte
superfluous crap
whilst cats are away mice play
but whose idea

It's so... 'cool'.
They're all great though, wow.
Hey Buff, will I take that as a tick of approval to sling it on the front page? It is an absolute cracker isn't it? And yeah yeah Schutte don't go getting a swell head or nothin'.
Ha ha ha... Nietszche by the pool... madness...
Sure Nobody, it's a toss up between Nietschze and muff diving... arghhhhh!!
Better stick with the philosopher!!
;)
oops late again.
all effort wasted
fish laid better plans than mice
back to drawing board
Ha ha! Imagine if Robbie Burns had had access to a scuba-diving cat?! Then he'd have written a poem 'To a fish' with the line -
The best laid schemes of haddock and cod,
Nay gang aft agley
And then, sure enough, John Steinbeck would have gone on to write 'Of Haddock and Cod', a book about Lennie and George, two winners for whom everything goes right with the both of them going on to live happily ever after.
Gosh! How different the world would have been!
not a haiku...
love the image!
patiently, most patiently...
i plot my revenge...
Hee hee. It might not be a haiku but it's definitely a cracking caption. And so... I declare Kikz the winner of the caption contest!
...and yeah, I didn't know we were having a caption contest either but that's the beauty of having a blog - you get to make shit up as you go along, ha!
:D
I can hear him near,
but that dumb dog
will never find me here
