ES Haiku
standing in the yard
small hands hold giant slices
juice drips in the grass
I came across this cute little haiku the other day on Garden Path. It was a brief, nostalgic take on the ultimate summer fruit: watermelon. This led to a search of haiku meme and a few minutes looking at various haiku attempts by people all over the web. Most of the haikus I came across were simple and sweet, though I came across some snarky ones on Twitter called #twaiku. One of my favorite examples was by Twitter User MJ:
Black socks being shown/at the 4 seasons cafe/pure class man. Pure class.
These cheeky twaikus were more my style and so I decided to try a few of my own that were a little more appropriate for ES:
#1
Slurp, lick and imbibe
cool, tasty intoxicate
#2
Some lovely food porn
Need those glossy images
#3
Images, ideas combine
Don’t try all at once
ES Readers: We’re sure some of you can do better so feel free to leave your food haiku in the comment section.
