Francine Roberts Poet Haiku

The Blue Jay

Magnificent hue...

    The blue jay runs through the leaves

         Drawing every eye.


Among the green leaves

   His wings shine like a beacon

       In vivid azure.


His blue wings flutter

   As he flits from branch to branch

     .....His plumage so bright.

Robert Pettit January 11, 2011 at 10:59 PM I'm not at all bored tonight. I like to read quality work, and that's just what I've been doing. This is another fine set of haiku. I know you are not describing the Toronto baseball team here.

Dr.Ram Mehta October 24, 2010 at 2:56 PM Very keen observation equally worded to paint a picture, Francine

Carolyn Devonshire October 24, 2010 at 1:45 PM The blue jays do have a striking beauty, Francine. Apparently they can also be quite aggressive as I've seen them chase other birds. I love the way you describe them in your haiku series. Great work! Love, Carolyn
