Haiku Monday: The Visual Chicken




Peter's denial:

Three times he disowned
Jesus, fearing through the night;
weeping by cock's crow











Genesis:

Articulated
counter-balanced skeleton
defines this raptor














Reclamation:

Frida, renew'd by
chickens colorful wisdom,
laid life without grief





Monster.com:

One comic artist/
chicken strip author for
syndicated wealth!

#2 but change articulating to articulated and lose both commas.

I agree with troll - thats the best and the coolest image too. however, I love peters denial - oh the grief and remorse he mustve felt! Then of course I love the Frida (no ""E" by the way)

As usual you have lots of great ones. I would go with 2. Decide soon though, Alicia, the judge, will review them tomorrow morning.

happy HM!

I love the chicken x-ray visual and sorry you have to decide on just one. I agree with Troll and Chickory on number 2.

They are all fabulous as usual.

Agree wif' Troll--an' the word articulated be's much better--never use the ING form when possible to avoid unless it ya mean to describe somethin' in process / moving at the moment that ya' mean to indicate.

I likes the subject matter of Peter's denial bestest, as it has most potential fer deep emotional recognition, somethin' good Haiku oughta do--an "Aha! " moment. Keep workin' that one around an' it will surpass the Articulated One.

But mah favorite visual is Frida.

Great offerings, as always! Happy Haiku Monday!

All,
thanks for the info!
Chickory, quit tapping.
I am brewing on another.

It's number two for me, too! Next fave is Frida's.

Good luck, Fishy!

Oh Fishy! How dare you make us choose! These are all so wonderful! I do like the one chosen. Very strong contender. x.

fishy said...

Thanks all,
my favorite was "Reclamation" as it seems to me Frida and Chickory both have cottoned on to the healing power of chickens. I went with majority advice so thanks again for helping, I cannot seem to be less dithery about the haikus.

Good morning Fishy,

I like Genesis myself.

If you get a minute stop by I posted a few shots of the neighbors.
