Over & Out!

ABC Wednesday - It's An ~O~! 

Over-the-Top, this
Beauty of Spring. It's pinkness,
Gorgeousness...endless!

Out of Kilter,
Out of alignment! Oh! A
Cupola askew!

When my friend, WT commented, she pointed out,
quite rightly so, that the original second
line (above) was one haiku syllable short.
Problem corrected!
Thanks, WT!

xoabb
expect anything!


First photo - taken yesterday, Candy Cane Crab Apple in my front yard
Second photo - taken last weekend in DC , around 10th and I street,
no idea what building it is

    Isn't the color of the crab apple the prettiest pink?

    Cupola haiku, second line, seems to be missing a syllable.

    How do you like me now?

    I would not have noticed that cupola askew if you hadn't pointed it out! Great shots....espcially struggling to find an "O". The flowers are beautiful!

    Observant one, aren't we? Advice from a friend years ago. She told me to always be sure to look up. Obviously she told you too. :)

    I find anybody making haikus very clever! I have no idea how to create one! I love your photos!

    Great photos! Askew cupola! ODD. Actually, occidental haiku is not limited to the old 5-7-5 because it was based originally on sounds and our words are totally different.
