| C.F. Tunnicliffe - Sparrows Raiding Corn |
This poem was originally written
in response to a #dailyhaikuprompt on Bluesky to write a haiku using the words ‘harvest’
and ‘sparrow.’ This Ladybird book illustration by C.F. Tunnicliffe immediately
sprang to mind.
Harvest festival
soon becomes a fiesta –
sparrows amid the barley.
