Ladybird Haiku

Tuesday, October 24, 2006



i'll skip the slovene version this time due to awkward phrasing.
here's pat paulk's poem that gave me the idea for this haiku/haiga.

This works better as a haiku. What kind of camera are you using?

I want to correct my first comment. I meant to say that this works better as a haiku or haiga like you've got it, than it would as a longer poem. I don't know if I expressed that clearly.

Your camera has cool features. It can even shoot underwater. You do good work, Polona.

Very effective, Polona.

thanks again, matt.
yes, i know what you mean. it's difficult to compare free verse to haiku as they use different techniques. i've always been trying to express myself as concise as possible, even before discovering haiku, and that seems to work best for me.
i like my camera and haven't yet explored all its features but would like to purchase a slr in the near future...

bearded critic, thank you!

you're most kind, pat. thank you!

thank you, dsnake1!

thanks, andrew!

charlie: as i said before, i love that little camera. and thank you as always for your support, i really appreciate it.
