Silly Haiku: Angry Footless Men?

My son and I were having a conversation recently that reminded me of the “visual haiku” he and his classmates wrote when I took them on an outing last year. Of course, I had to provide an example for them. What do I do when I have to write a haiku “on the spot” for a bunch of sixth graders? I write a silly haiku based on a photo of pansies, of course!

Angry footless men
Glare when I pause for a look
Or, are they…puppies

    I love pansies and now! I think I have cabin fever. Can’t wait for my wild sweet violets to bloom.
    This is a beautiful picture and I love your haiku! Your son is lucky to have a mom like you…
