mjk is on a distinguished road
watery windings

watery windings
dissect colors called green while
yellow stands up straight

and another...

the sighed wisps of lines
whimsy like a painter's brush
disjoint fixedly

mjk: These are poetic and lovely, but give an abstract image of the photo. One of aims of traditional haiku is to evoke the 'suchness' of objects. It is often more fun to do an 'inspired by' rather than trying for a 'This is it!' mandibles gorging edibles

Penelope is an unknown quantity at this point
okay - I haven't seen the photos but can guess there are daily ones somewhere judging by the similarity of the haikus posted by you both.

I take what I see when I read yours and do my own - sometimes
