These are great contests, three haiku's for the price of admission. I read these over and over and each time my mind went elsewhere thinking about them.
I can't pick a favorite they are all so cool. I like the play on the word picnic... mosquito pick-neck.
Good luck in the contest. John

Comment from Pantygynt
Three good ones here and numbers two and three have a certain humour - a ghastly play on words with pick- neck and sustainability is well humour sustained right to the bitter end. Good fun these.

Comment from sibhus
The line mosquito pick-neck was really funny and very original. A beautiful poem that has wonderfully endearing and tender images. The images of fluttering song birds while the couple embrace is delightful. A great poem.

Comment from robyn corum
love birds sing
while couple kiss and hug
free serenade
-- is DEFINITELY my favorite!
Okay -- I had to read and reread several times before I got the 'picnic' reference! Very clever.
Honestly, your satori line on #3 escapes me. (Sorry!)
Overall a good submission for the contest -- I expect others to be wiser than me! *smile*

thank you robyn, the third haiku was not working, i changed it. :)
Comment from Domino 2
I particularly like the very clever and fun play on words - 'mosquito pick-neck'.
Excellent clever satori in the 3rd to reflect 'energy' sustainability.
Not much in life is free, so a bird serenade is always welcome. :-)
Three top haiku to reflect the theme.
A very strong contender, IMO.
Good luck and best wishes, Ray.

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
When I got to the last stanza I was like - wow... that's a jump! The first two stanzas were so innocent and beautiful and than - bang (pun intended) we are at the last stanza. Maybe that transition didn't flow well but I so enjoyed the first two. Great job.

Comment from Jeanie Mercer
This is an interesting take on the subject. The first two poems of the series have concrete imagery. But the third one is more of a statement rather than a haiku with concrete imagery. Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercer
