TJ’s Household Haiku

Flock of Birds, Perth, Western Australia
Instinct driven, the birds fly overhead

 

There in the blue sky,

A flock of doves making notes

Writing melodies.

These birds looked to me a little like a piece of written music as they wheeled overhead. Far to difficult for my hands to play.

Welcome to TJ’s weekly haiku challenge,

The prompt words for this week are “Melody and blue”. You can use either the prompt words or the picture as an inspiration for your own haiku post and share a link to your prompt in the comments (press the little black speech bubble.)

Last week the prompt was “Arch and Tree” and inspired some wonderful haiku.

Two on a Rant combined light and seasons in this clever haiku.

But I Smile Anyway has the perfect haiku for the image. A truly great final line.

A tragic nod to loss from Annette Rochelle Aben. Majestic trees brought down.
