Today’s prompt from Carpe Diem is eyes and what’s better than the eye of the tiger.
jungle menace
yellow slits reflecting
eyes of the tiger
~~
in the velvet night
a tiger eyes illuminate
nightmare of the deer

chronicling my quarter life crisis
Very dramatic.
Would you do me a favor, and ask yer pirate to check his spam filter?
I still cannot comment on his blog, and can’t find any othr way to communicate with him.
Thanx,

I have this problem on some of his blogs too! Maybe he’ll see this!
i love the fierceness of the yellow slits…and the danger lurking in the velvet night…
Oh, dear! Uh, deer! 🙂
If These Bones Had Eyes
Lol
I love your use of eyes to communicate the perspective of the animals.
I forgive you for sparking the Rocky Theme off in my head with your great first haiku, because the second was startling! Thank you 🙂
A little ear worm is great to start from
Dramatic final twist after the lulling of the initial description!
tiger eyes … that’s strong !!!
Very nice haiku. When the tiger is infuriated, his eyes turn ochre…
you made a natural occurrence sound so mystical…..nice job!
I loved your use of ‘velvet’ For some reason it added to the surprise in the third line! Great write!
Danger is in the air…and not just for the deer! Wonderful!
