Haiku Heights #290 ~ September Heights Day 17 ~ Dread




Traffic in Mumbai, India

These traffic jams 
dreadful sight day and night
     crossing road impossible.   
                                                                                                        



Lizard : Gecko




  Lizard,cockroach,rat 

                     wasp, at home,take the breath.

                     mother  daughter shriek.!

    Loved your haiku, Ushajee.

    All are annoying yet play an essential role.

    Excellent..I have heard the shrieking sounds... and trafic jams have taught me patience...when one can't do a thing, one observes and pick up moments to create haiku..without boundaries...

    Good take by you Ushaji..thanks..

      Good thought RS. You have 'some' patience. I become desperate when caught in a traffic jam. Thank you RS.

    Hmm, it's a hard choice: traffic jam today, or cockroach?
