Friday haiku: pollard willows

December 13, 2019 By Marit 6 Comments

Days fly by, the year is almost over and I haven’t even bound me a new Chronicles art journal for 2020 yet. However, I decided on the seize and did cut & fold the signatures already; I might create a cover and bind it all together this weekend. I might even start today… but first, my Friday haiku.

Friday haiku

Ze klitten samen
schudden hun wilde haren
als een stel pubers
They stick together
like youngsters on a schoolyard
and shake their wild oats

The photo was taken by my friend Lena Schreijenberg

I submit this haiku to Recuerda Mi Corazon where our lovely hostess Rebecca brings us all together to share a haiku on Friday: Haiku my Heart.

There’s two art journal spreads I want to show. I save the third one I (week 49) for the next blogpost ’cause I don’t want to overload this blogpost.

And that’s it for today, short and sweet.
Thank you for visiting my blog!

    Sticking together is important in this wild and sometimes dangerous world.

    I always feel sorry for trees that have been pollard. Interesting shot. Nice haiku.

    Thank you Merit for these snipets into your art-making! I love Lena’s photo paired with your haiku. It is one of the things I love most about winter, seeing the bare bones of the trees. Your haiku takes them further into personalities and a story unfolding! Thank you my freind!
