This week’s Haiku Dialogue at The Haiku Foundation (thehaikufoundation.org) had a theme of shiny instrument.
My haiku:
first year resident…
a blood droplet
on her new scalpel
~Nancy Brady, 2019
Read all of them including commentary by Craig Kittner and others at thehaikufoundation.org as there are some really excellent ones there.
About pedometergeek
A pharmacist by profession, a haiku poet by nature, I read and write. I have my debut book of haiku, Ohayo Haiku, and another somewhat alternative haiku book, Three Breaths, but write other genres. I have an illustrated children's book, The Adventures of Aloysius. I also read...lots of novels! My favorite is, and remains, Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged but I am also a big Harry Potter fan.
I truly am a pedometer geek strapping on my pedometer as soon as I awaken.
That was a twist… as I was thinking musical! 🙂

Many of the writers did think musical instruments. Singing bowls to trumpets to bugles to more.

And to writers our shiny instrument is our writing utensil! 🙂 Some pens and even mechanical pencils can be very fancy.
