Silliest Haiku Ever?
This may well be the silliest haiku I’ve ever written. But I was determined to use all five words of Poefusion’s latest prompt in a haiku:
Not so winsome gal
Flings cranberries at her prey.
Can’t lose quacky ducks.
And speaking about poetry prompts, I’ve just posted a new one: Taxing Verse Limerick & Haiku Prompt.

Thanks so much Paisley!
My husband Mark just came up with this haiku and asked me to post it:
For a spring fling
I seduced my winsome, quacky prey
With cranberries.

A brace of ducky flings! What fun!

Hey Mad Kane, thanks for stopping by Poefusion again. I love your haiku because it makes me think of those fairs that come to town. You know the ones where you shoot at those ducks with water/ pellet guns. I always enjoyed going to the 4th of July fair with my great aunt Mary as a child and playing those kind of games. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Also, tell your husband he is officially a haiku artist now. Have a nice weekend.

They are both as close to perfection as perfection gets. Much fun to read.
