Daver Austin Poet Haiku

Fill-Ins - N Invitation For the Reader To Use Imagination

FILL-INS
An invitation for
the reader to use
imagination

Who?      What?
two fine ladies rest
neath a bamboo
umbrella
they talk of a
third?

Fishermen
small boat at anchor
two men mend her
tattered sail
weather      or old
age?

Pretty Song
on the dogwood
branches
scarlet tanager and
mate
what song do they
sing?

New York blizzard
snowy avenue
many people     
like black streaks
to      or from
their work?

Interesting
like Jackson Pollack
this mishmash of
dots and streaks
is there a message?

On the hike
a meadow      a
stream
with scattered pines
     wild flowers
let’s have a picnic

Baby Bear
so easy to love
he’s a shaggy, gray
kitty
always in the way 

  
      .

Connie Marcum Wong July 28, 2014 at 2:16 PM Careful thought behind each one Daver. Fisher. Pretty song and Baby bear are my three favorites of these. Always a pleasure to read your work.

Anna-Marie Docherty July 28, 2014 at 8:20 AM An enjoyable collection of haiku - glad I stopped by! Well done...

Casarah Nance July 28, 2014 at 6:51 AM I enjoyed these, I know with the website glitch it gets screwy, you can reformat your poem in the EDIT setting, then it comes out looking fine. I really did like your thought provoking pieces :) hugs
