Vegetable Haiku

Bowing to the spirit of creativity, which often strikes during world crisis, (air strikes in Syria) the muse has decided to ask the visual of the "Catch" series to dance with an offering of words gathered in the Haiku tradition. 
Someone once said, "Beauty is our best weapon." I tend to agree.

Catch of the Day

Vegetable Haiku
Inspired by the Garden
Yields fruits yet unseen.

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

Haven't posted in a while, but gardening daily. So if a picture is truly worth a thousand words, this little series I put on Facebook called "Catch of the Day" says it all, and makes up for my lapse in writing. Most of them are one take, who has time for more? Enjoy.
