After a vacation I’m now back to give you a final entry of the zodiac at Carpe Diem. The fishwife I think is a classic concept. And in this fabulous piece of art you can hear her foul language.

The Fishwife by Adriaen van Ostade
foul smell of fishes
language of the market wives
I’ll have meat today
~~
destiny of fish
ruled by stars and Neptune
ends on dinner-plate

A Good Fish Story
Hope you had good vacation. I am glad to see you here again. Your haiku of today are great and with humor.
I like that first one especially!
I had fish for dinner tonight…with two Pisces 🙂
Great to see you back Bjorn. I hope you had a great trip?
Most things are destined to be some body’s dinner.
Great haiku 🙂
