Serengeti Picnic

Leaf 230 – Senryu (or witty, tom-foolery)

 

This is another poem – possibly – inspired by watching the nature documentaries of Sir David Attenborough (see also, Leaf 124). However, I like the ambiguity in this one. It poses the question: exactly who is having a picnic in this scene?

 

 

Serengeti picnic –

pride of pink faces

dozing in the sunshine.

 

 

 

 

This poem was originally written and posted on Bluesky in response to a #dailyhaikuprompt: 'picnic.'
