Haiku 13 - Admiring Swans

swans glided downstream
regal, tall and elegant....
then they were headless

The delicacy of these birds was captured well by you. The Hakui is beautiful, as is the image. Blessing Debra

Swans get hungry, too-and that's the 'bottom' line. I love this marvelously amusing haiku. Nice work, my friend. :)

Each line a splendid image my friend--regal, tall, elegant, headless. Your words bring the photo to fore.

Victor, I genuinely appreciate the Haiku you've written, and it works nicely with the photographs you've included. It strikes a personal chord with me in particular. Dear friend, please accept my sincere regards.

They are grand and regal but when they sup, they turn their little bottoms up? I enjoyed reading this one. I always enjoy pictures of them when they face each other and form the heart. They mate for life and are emotionally upset when their mate dies. Your visit to my page is encouraging. Sara
