Bobbing Haiku

entry picture

Apples, toffee, crab

Halloween bobbing

mouths all a- gobbing

 

Scrawny scouts and guides

bob a jobbing  or robbing?

Brown Owl hob-knobbing

 

Owl and pussycat

bobbing in a pea green boat

sticky five pound note

 

Bald heads in damp beds

bobbing, knobbing, throbbing, on the jobbing to the groove

mirrors on the move

 

Wet chests in white vests

bobbing breastfully aware

cold nip in the air

 

Green okra floater

bobbing take away dinner

cover and simmer

 

Bored witless poet

bobbing, cobbing and lobbing

saving Shithaiku

Thanks for the comments and tolerance folks. This was a massive piece of silliness from me - I can never take Haiku seriously. You didn't even pick up on my deliberate clanger - you obviously know me too well! xx

Some lovely juicy (sorry) lines in this one Isobel. I love the thought of boy scouts jobbing or robbing and bald heads in damp beds and the sticky £5 note.
By the way is the last word a misspelt mushroom. Bravo!
