FERGIEMOTO does it again! So Cute.

Avian Attitude (Flickr photo)

Fergiemoto has done it again with another adorable bird photograph! Read the haiku that accompanies it on Fergiemoto’s page @ http://creativityaroused.wordpress.com/2012/01/06/avian-attitude/

I enjoy the photographs of cute birds or insects that accompany well-chosen haiku. Simplicity that is both refreshing and beautiful, said in a minimalist technique that works so well . This is Fergiemoto’s genius.

Enjoy!

Haiga: Japanese Painting and Poetry

Water dragon lives at the bottom of the sea. Wise, mysterious... (Ledia Runnels)

This combines a drawn or painted minimalist image with haiku verse, which is itself minimalist poetry.

Try your hand at it and then share it here! I’m sure others would love to see what you come up with. I know I would.
