Winged Wonder

Very touching Haiku....liked it....

Ive seen this with my own eyes after an oil spill in the Chesapeake once. We were fishing for blue crab and every one we caught up was covered with oil sludge....very sad...this is good poem from nature's perspective. Have a great day , Carolyn!

Sad and so true. thanks for reading my poem tonight. Poor Ollyver was so stupid. I have many stories and poems of him but hubbie finally couldn't take his bad habits anymore (peeing in corners, yapping at strangers, fear biting Joe on his toe in the night. haha) I really wish I knew what happened to him but someone at Pet Smart adopted him I was told. Luv , Andrea

SAD, but well said. God help our oceans and wildlife. Lovingly, Dane

such a meaningful cause to care in. Carelessness wrecked so much havoc and yet the careless remain in scores. Susan

such a moving poem, Carolyn, it's really so sad how some people can be so careless...

SAD.WHEN WILL OUR WORLD STOP bUfFy

Its tragic to see so much wildlife affected by mans want Carolyn. Excellent Haiku >> James

Close to my heart on this subject , why are we so dam careless

The Strict Haiku can be on any subject ..Charles listed sports as an example..that is all I needed... the Marlins are doing pretty good too so far... I have read some on Summer and bees and mine is sports ..u just need to capitalized the one word that u are writing about liek i did in World Series Mania.. SPORTS on the last line... sorry to be getting back so late..had eye surgery this morning and am all foggy and blurry and need more in June so am letting my fingers feel their way..luv..

Very good Carolyn, one persons treasure is always someone else's headach. ck. your soup mail.

Hi, Carolyn. That oil spill is really sickening. I just watched the commercial where someone is trying to clean up a duck. Will the planet be habitable in another 10 years? Timely write. Love, Dave

Well written for the times we are living in. When will we begin to recognize our symbiotic relationship with the other creatures who inhabit this world? Good luck in the contest! Dan C

Thank you for the much valued honour given to my poem Carolyn in your contest.Rgds Brian

Beautiful Haiku about an awful circumstance. I enjoyed reading it today.

Awesome Haiku, dear Carolyn..it's an extremely horrible situation..and again, our greed supercedes our duty to all creatures...even ourselves....Thanks for leaving comments for me and also for the honor of having my poem placed 3rd in your Phoenix Rising Contest!! Will always cherish this! Love, Audrey

Black Gold, Texas tea, BP. Some kind of a chaotic combination Hu? Awesome Haiku. Also an awesome Photo contest Carolyn. Thank you for the 2nt place. It was fun, to be in the contest. Also Congratulations to you personally for a successful contest, and to all who took part and made it successful. Agape, Moses

Great awareness write about the oil rig explosion and spill...Keep the creative pen flowing...Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my write and letting me know that it placed in your contest...I know that the writes are exceptional and hard to pick a winner...Sara

so true!

I guess it is the quest for that black gold. I often wonder why we have to have rigs out at sea. Is there not enough oil on land or do the dollars signs outweigh everything. Thank you for all your comments they are greatly appreciated. God Bless Phyl

Awesome write, Carolyn! I really wonder what would come next with so many oil riggs close to the American coast...Wish you could luck in the contest and thanks for your kind comments...Love, Gert
