If you want to read some more, and better poetry, Diane - who has taken over the hosting of this challenge - and Mimi of
Messymimi's Meanderings - who also supplies us with topics - are writing wonderful, funny,
thought-provoking, ingenious and honestly well written verse. Go and
read.
Karen of
Baking in a Tornado
has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month -
may we hope for more!
SpikesBestMate
often publishes a nice verse in the comments.
Jenny at
Procrastinating Donkey
who has been a faithful participant, is taking a break due to her husband's passing from
this world. Let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and lots of
prayers her way.
I have something more to ask of you: If you read this and the
poetry of others, would you please leave a comment. Half - if not more - the
fun of these challenges is receiving the responses of others.

Raspberry cake is a worthy subjedt, at least here in the Owlery, where no birthday celebration is perfect without at least one raspberry pie or Swiss roll with raspberry jam. We are celebrating 9 birthdays in a span of 5 weeks (beginning yesterday, but we celebrated Thursday), and I am still watching Le Tour and putting things there and back again hunting for moths, so only a short poem - a Haiku - from me this Monday.
Oh raspberry pie
pleasing and nice to the eye
and palate and nose

Yum.
SvarSletAnd loud applause for your haiku - something I struggle with.
January is 'our' birthday month. I will you all happy raspberry flavoured celebrations this month.
9 Birthdays over five weeks isn't so bad. I used to have 13 birthdays from 28 January to the end of March. Now there are only 11 since both my parents died.
SvarSletI love raspberry flavour.
Love your Haiku :)
Mmmm...so much said in such few words!
SvarSletAnd have fun with those birthdays!
SvarSletYum! A very good haiku.
SvarSletWishing many happy returns to all of the birthday celebrants.
