Aso, need more target practice!!!!! Pigeons no good aim. Aso, aso, aso. Need to paint red zeros for pigeons. Pigeon need aim. Aso, Aso. Another great laugh that was sorely needed after a night of wrestling with the demons of fear and indetermination, sorrow and hatred. Thank you my good friend for the good belly laugh. This old soul really, really needed it!!!!!!!!!!

Oh how clever and funny. How did you think of that. My your are funny and poetic. I know a girl who got a brand new suede coat and right away a pigeon went on it. They should be required to wear depends. Thanks for sharing. The poem is a riot.

Quite a cute photo of pudgy pigeons. Need depends? I hope I was to laugh because I thought of 'Depends" the waterproof panties sold in the drugstore. LOL I enjoyed the poem and photo combo very much.

That was the idea. I capitalized Depends originally, but one reviewer thought people would get it without doing do. Thanks for the kudos.

I agree no capitalization is needed. Elly

LOL. Good review. I wanted to use fart in this, but thought the Japs would get me for abusing their form.
Comment from Judian James
HA!! Who could possibly resist this piece with a title like that? I just commented to my walking partner the other day, (we live in a land of seagulls, being on the coast) that I have never been plooped on in my life! I thought that was incredible until he said that he never had either!!
Funny one, Shari. You might consider de-capitalizing
"Depends" People will still get it but you will then introduce a second meaning. Just a thought.

Thanks Judian. I debated about the capital. But my hubby didn't get it --but I prefer your way which does introduce the second meaning. Will change. Thanks a bunch.
Comment from Deannsil08
Yes, birds do have an unfortunate, annoying habit of crapping everywhere. I agree, they should make bird diapers. Lol. And yes it's an ancient art form. We've all been crapping since the beginning of time but seriously birds.......Could you not do it on my favorite T-shirt or my hair or my car. That's just rude!!! Lol. Brilliant. Beautiful. Bravo.

Comment from Avrilnova
Oh my gosh! This is funny...and so true. Fantastic job bringing humor to the haiku! Keep 'em coming. Although haiku is technically 5/7/5 syllable format. Other than that it would have been a 5 star.

I thought it could also be a 3-5-3 according to Bellydanser who is writing a series on this form. Well, you gave me 5 stars anyway. Know I have done that in error sometimes-meaning a 4.
But I never went back to change it.

I stand corrected. Great job!
