I didn’t think I’d find a haiku for this one at all. Ronovan’s challenge is here if you’d like to participate or just read the entries.
Lost beneath the mist,
milky white, pearl bright with sun,
silk smooth river runs.

What lovely imagery š
Thanks Judy. I wasn’t sure how the word ‘milk’ was going to fit in.
It fitted in perfectly š
Oh its gorgeous, Jane, very evocative!
Thanks Ali! I do like river mist, but especially when there’s a bit of sun shining through it š
I’m the same with lakes. Its so magical and ethereal. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see the Sidhe riding out of it one day…
And why not? That’s the kind of place they live.
A beautiful collection of images in the poem. So evocative.
Thank you! River mist is particularly beautiful š
Lovely image of the bridge. Your haiku describes river mist beautifully.
Thank you! The Garonne is very photogenic š

Most excellent, and fitting the image so well.
Thank you Ken š
My mind travelled to the place through our photo and haiku. What a nice to see this morning.
Thanks Pat š We’ve had a lot of mist this year.

Beautiful, Jane! I love the photo, too.
Thank you š I have a cheap telephone that takes lovely photos of the Garonne, but nothing else.

I can just about feel that river, lovely response to the prompt
Lovely haiku. Sometimes we produce the best haiku with the words that most challenge us. š
Thanks Vashti š I really had doubts about these two words.
