Haiku Friday: Seafood!
When I read this fascinating article about Lolo's Seafood Shack in Harlem, I knew what this week's topic should be: seafood.
At least once a week, I try to eat something good from the sea (or maybe a lake or river). I love grilling fish-- though not this time of year-- and I'm a fan of shrimp, scallops, and... well, lots of stuff. So haiku about what you love or hate, just do it!
Here is mine:
Thick slab of salmon
Brushed with wine and butter,
Get in my belly!
Now it is your turn... just make it 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables, and have some fun!

"Do you like seafood?"
Asked the kid at summer camp
When I told him yes
He opened his mouth
To show me his oatmeal-yuck!
"See? Food!" he garbled.

On Inisheer the white
Horse-drawn redwagon, driven
In soft Gaelic tongue
Took us to a pub
Where the chowder: scallops, mussels,
Cod sang from its bowl.

Fronds of delicate dill,then
Eat you,Bagel'd Dream!
