3WW - Tanka/Haiku

Cautious - Human - Maybe

I had to escape
looking for serenity
I'm only human
cautious of my sanity
maybe I'll go a fishin.


Gliding through ripples
table for two glistening
webbed pair paddle by

I've been away from the computer and hanging out at the lake, fishing. The sun and light breeze were heavenly. I caught my first fish of the season and boy was he tasty on the BBQ. I'm watching the garden waterfall grow more beautiful each day but sadly it's not done yet. Gorilla hair bark, irrigation and seating are coming soon. I'm still going to sneak in a shot even though my brother wants me to wait. ;)

Wow it's so beautiful. I don't think I have been fishing since I was ten

Don't blame you for wanting to be away from a computer. I just want to be at the beach :)

Lucky you! I had to work :(
I love to fish, but I hate taking them off the hook.

Your Haiku is beautiful and so are You. :))
I can't wait for summer, although it may take me away from my computer too.

I went fishing now and again as a kid, but haven't done so for decades. You make it sound so wonderful.

Beautiful Tammy...I love how you're deciding to spend your time and finding what you need out there.

Let's talk today. I'm not feeling the greatest, but we can have a short chat. I'll call later...

Love you,

This looks like such a relaxed setting; I don't blame you a bit for allowing the cobwebs to collect on the keyboard while you meet the ducks for breakfast or lunch at their glistening table.

Breathe deep of the wonder that is spring!

Sounds wonderful and peaceful! There is something about fishing that's so good for the soul! Mmmm BBQ fresh fish!! Lovely haiku, I can't seem to write them!

Hugs Sherrie

Ducks often look so peaceful. Your haiku captures that whole scene perfectly.
