enjoyed this Haiku, Carrie. These are difficult for me to do correctly sometimes but yours came shining through. Those woodpeckers aren't very fussy sometimes are they? must have interchangeable beaks...one for metal ..one for wood. : ) Good luck in the contest Carrie

I enjoyed this; it's a great image, one I'm familiar with, but you have added a touch of humor and perhaps a pun? Thanks, Jim

This is a fantastic write Carrie! And that woodpecker is definitely on top of the world...or is it you on top of the world trying to deal with it's insidious constant wrapping! Just a thought :) Great work!!
