I enjoyed your haiku and the picture to accompany. I loved the creative idea of birds as a "women's club of sorts." Good luck in the contest. I tried poetry in preadolescent days and was not encouraged in my moon, June, tune ideas, but as I taught poetry, I really came to love to read and write it.

Imagine if we could understand their language. There is no telling what we would learn. I like the picture and the story. I enjoyed reading your post.
I hope you have a great day. Take care. And stay safe.

Hahaha - I really enjoyed the humor in this post. Makes me wonder what the heck birds are saying to each other. This was easy to understand and entertaining. Regards, Lilly

Lovely image of the birds gathering to gossip in this haiku. Great observation as it does seem that they congregate to chirp and quack about all sorts of things. Good luck in the contest!

This is a very creative, charming piece. I like the comparison of these sociable birds to a group of women, perhaps at a spa--chatting and enjoying their surroundings.

This is a very creative poem.. the closing line is really good.
That said we all know that men do gossip too , if not more
just saying ( wink)

I like the analogy, which also turns the tables on the old chauvinistic practice of referring to ladies as 'birds' - this way, it becomes a wry positive. Great work :-)

Giggling... Well, it could be! Birds of a feather and all that!
A sisterhood of plumage! I find the notion endearing.
It beats "Tweeting!"

I enjoyed this haiku because not only does it meet the requirements but you have written it with a whimsical undertone.
The story told is light and airy and reads with a lyrical pace. This is a good contest entry that I hope will do well, good luck.
