Associated Haiku

the garden pond carefully placed.... see frozen goldfish frozen goldfish-- coolly await spring thaw spring rain falls softly -- a wet massage the masseuse strong fingers but-- no candy the candy store millions of flavors-- calories counted food cops now in schools.... can’t read the writing spider writes your name and you die.... no spell check checks and balance.... is only found In banking Mexican food source of the winds... bank on that the winds creeping in silence.... very deceptive deceptive haiku just had to get noticed.... now paying price

This sure is such a cool set of haiku, Charles! I really enjoyed this-- I was thinking about going along the same road you took-- being connected by mine ended up being more "scattered"-- congrats on your wonderful take on the challenge :)-- nikko :)

this is really cool how you let each haiku be a building block on the next one. great approach!! I enjoyed reading. And you even did them with reduced syllable count. way to go! Luv, Andrea

Some interesting as well as witty haikus in this mixture, Charles. I laughed out loud with the one about the "winds" from Mexican food. The haiku on the writing spider is also very intriguing. Great images of the "frozen goldfish" waiting for the pond to thaw and the last one is priceless. Best wishes for the contest! Love, Carolyn
