The Salad Bowl



I've accompanied this posting with my own sketch above of soft pastel on an A4 size dark creative paper.


Hot Capsicum


Glistening with pride
Fondness for chili peppers
A green capsicum

Gives a kick at lunch
Amidst bunched with other greens
hot and spicy stance

Hotplate with servings
Gnashed, gnawed spicing up the chow
fitting for a King


A haiku for One Stop Wednesday Week #24

  1. I really like your sketch. Your poem is great. Here where I live, in Southern New Mexico capsicum is a staple. Red and green chili peppers are a must at almost every meal.

  7. I like your sketch--and I like peppers in all their forms except for the ones that burn your lips off. You cooked them up well in the poem.
