Wonderful photograph of sheep, as you say, they are very nosy and seem as interested in the photographer as their food.I love the warmth in the colour of their wool against the cold whites and greys of the trees.
Lovely images, both haiku and photo. Arpeggios, indeed! Well, yes crows do make music. It's not to everybody's taste. But I for one like it. We have two crows come every morning to the kitchen window. If we're late up for any reason they start the crow alarm clock.
Thanks Poet in Residence. I too love all the crow family - I think there is something about crows and poetry. Do you know Edwin Morgan's Kierkegaard's Song?
I agree about the connection between the crow family and poetry - mythology too. Ravens in particular. Of course there's Ted Hughes' 'Crow' collection of poems - which is not everyone's cup of tea, but I really like it.
I love your black arpeggios. What a clever phrase. I am all behind with my blogging and have had a lovely time reading about four posts from yours in one go. They are always so interesting and uplifting.
Such a clever image!

Yes acornmoon, it did occur to me when I posted the photo that there is something lovely about those muted tones.

ReplyDeleteThanks to you all for the comments about the haiku. There is nothing like a bit of praise to get one started on another one!
