Nice Dennis. I am not acquainted with this version of the haiku. I've only seen the five, seven, five examples. Joyce

Hi Joyce, This is more contemporary Haiku. Rule of thumb is 5-7-5 syllables or less to convey the word picture. Thanks for your comment. Dennis :^)

I also thought it had to be 5-7-5 but
you did paint the picture

I like to write in haiku because I find I don't have much time and that keeps me writing. thanks for sharing,

Dennis,

Empty-nest syndrome or should I say "feeder" can certainly have its effects on our observing them.... Sigh. But, don't fret, my friend, they'll be Home when the food runs low. Smiles.
