Carpe Diem prompt today is wolf moon, which is the name for the full moon in January. By coincidence there is a wolf roaming around the neighborhood where I am.
I found the perfect woodblock print for today made by Yoshitoshi showing a wolf at full moon.
howling at the moon
hungry wolf in winter night
lambs are kept inside

moon and city lights
starving wolf eats garbage
neutered menace

snow on winter plain
silver streaks from perfect moon
hunting pack of wolf

Perfect print for haiku and very creative haiku ~ can hear them howling ~ Carol of: (A Creative Harbor) on Blogger
Another great set and image Bjorn. I like the way you’ve brought in the modern day urban wolf.
howling of the wolves … It has a mysterious feeling about it !!!
neutered menace – lol i do feel sorry for him.. another great set ^^
Love the descriptions of the three habitats of wolf. Adore the picture:)
The mood…yes, there’s something mysterious, yet scary… Howling and hunting is on!
I was up watching the wolf moon here. It made me want to howl. So I wrote instead. What a nice set of poems.They are alive with the wilderness.
Those 3 haiku are written by someone who knows his nature. Wonderful presentation.
