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!

It was only a matter of time before Munch got back in here - really he's too bloody good.
In searching for a pic, my initial thoughts were that Madonna would be a shoe-in. But then I find pic after pic perfect for haiku inspiration. So I decide to let randomness take over. I'll throw all the pix I downloaded into a folder and then upon opening the folder I'll take whatever pic is third from the bottom. Sure enough, it's the woodcut Madonna.
