This is a very good haiku for the contest. I wish you the best in the contest. May you continue to stay warm in this winter climate and the spring comes I hope that you will enjoy the warmer weather. Your image here is so good to the words that are being said.

Comment from lyenochka
I loved "glancing over the menu" ! What a humorous view of the osprey's view over the waters. I have been canoeing on a lake when an osprey dove right next to us and boy, do they make a big splash to get their prey!
Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from pome lover
cute idea and picture, however, to me, it would sound better if you said "checking out", instead of glancing over, because he's looking over the precipace of something, and it sounds like it means "perched above, glancing over the edge of..., instead of glancing, or looking over the menu.
Is that clear as mud??? :)
what about: osprey, perched above, checking out the menu~ dangerous waters. And by the way, why dangerous waters? what about, dinner below, or something.
I'm sorry. Your poem sounds lovely, it just seemed a bit confusing to me.

Your contest entry read well, Kahpot. The picture was great.
Your words painted a picture for readers. The satori was a great
choice. Your second line has only 6 syllables and needs seven,
though the rules state 'normally' seventeen syllables.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan

You have chosen a beautiful pic to describe a way of life that God has ordained for one of His majestic creation. Loved your description of his perusing the menu.
