Challenging enough to condense a meaning into 3 phrases in 3 lines and even more so when restricting the syllables and trying to get some measure of juxtaposition.
Some more attempts at “not quite haikus” to follow my earlier attempts.
Surely amateurish but oddly satisfying.
6.
Sitting in the car
Raindrops merging on the windscreen
Wife shopping
7.
Silence all around
Unheard cacophony in the air
Radio waves
8.
A hole in the thick ice
Groaning and creaking all around
Grilled fish for dinner
9.
Visitor at the door
Rolling to expose his belly
Neighbour’s cat
10.
Low winter sun
Hanging in a crystal blue sky
Brilliantly blinding
