Hook & Flesh Haikus

Posted on October 1, 2015 | 9 Comments

Returning Evil

By hook for a crook–
Sweet pound of flesh: Revenge.
Boomerang! …I’m d e a d….

Love, Crocheted

Wool through gnarled fingers.
Frozen joints struggle to hook.
Grandchild’s flesh is warmed.

Oops! We all can really miss what the word is. Tide and Tied sound exactly alike. Keep going. This is just a fluke. Otherwise, your Haiku is quite interesting. 🙂

Thank y’all for joining in the challenge. Another duo. We have a sister act that joins as well. Now I am going to be self conscious of my punctuation. It’s awful. 🙂

  Thank you so very much for hosting the haiku challenge and for taking time to read/respond to my first “poem-product.” Here’s a secret: after years of copywriting/marketing, I’ve forgotten or foregone all the spelling/punctuation rules..No worries:) God bless you!

    So no free proofing or editing of my next book then? Bummer. 😀
