Frog

bug plucked from air
ribbit rings out
hunger sated

That's one striking image which I often used to see in my younger days; nowadays the sight of ponds and frogs has diminished. ~ Regards // paul

Sad to hear... used to keep frogs when I was a nipper! Thanks for your visit! Regards, John.

Thanks, Andrea. Still dipping my toe in the pool of contemporary Haiku and your kind comments spur me.
