Great imagery… and that is what I really like about your poetry: the way you make a scene come alive in your words. And a well composed haiku. 🙂
Thank you so much Anmol I have written quite a simple one today about my experience when living in the mountains and the cicada invaded. The sound was absolutely surreal, no one went outside, a deserted city, beautiful hot day and I went out Sam for a walk just hearing that sound seeing no one it really did seem like everyone had been abducted and then I saw the cicada thousands of them really. They were everywhere and we were 2 miles in to the walk totally into our conversation before he realized. This is why no one is outside!
Lovely haiku, I can hear them 🙂
Thanks Melanie in such enormous numbers they make a very weird hum totally Sci Fi
Wonderful haiku…beautifully written!
Thanks Bastet!

Beautifully done, Yves. Wonderful comparison! 🙂
Thanks Celestine!
Lol.. When I was a kid I always imagined them as the tiny spacecrafts. You mentioned it so well.
Thank you I am glad to know I am not the only one haha
