the new moon like a plum
ripens the dark

#Dailyhaikuprompt: haystack

there was no needle
just haystack after haystack
stitched to a sunset

shaken loose from the river

The plums are all gone,
Blue jays now eat our apples,
Payment in feathers.

Gleeful magpies seize
On breadcrumbs newly scattered
Cache them in the grass.

Poor euphemism for feel-
ing so ruddy awful I can't even write a proper haiku.

Scarlet, freckled white,
Mushroom out of fairy tale,
Earthy, damp and real.

But try to shut it
And the air is rent with yowls
Of indignation.
Can the Beans read this?
It does have its moments, doesn't it? And we're all sort of a bit ashamed of admitting it! I still think that child is creepy as anything though.
I love that film. The visuals are incredible. They create a whole fantasy world I longed to visit when I first watched it - and still do.
When in doubt....dance with the Weasels. @marymonkart.bsky.social
Hurrah it is Wednesday, we are back from Manchester and the weasels are of course, dancing. Today a bit of Pulp and Commin people. I’m pretty sure Jarvis is actually a weasel.
Dance like a weasel you know you want to! #weaselwednesday
Dull, relentless rain
Mulching down the autumn fires
Quenching their colours.

I enjoyed that one. Kate Atkinson's dry humour is very compelling.
That's fascinating (although I would love to know how we can tell if a slug is hallucinating or not!)

Bunch of leaves, Autumn's
Punch, childlike delight in the
Crisp crunch underfoot.

black breath of the field
in waves gathered and loosened
the flight of starlings
My calico cat
Shrimped happily in my chair.
That was MY blanket.
