Today for Frank Tassone’s Haikai Challenge We have been asked to write about a Katydid. We do not have Katydids in England but I have seen and heard them when on holiday abroad. Today I have written a Haiku about the image Frank gave us and also Tanka.

HAIKU
There on the worktop
Katydid, double trouble
Optical magic
TANKA
Never found at home
Wrong Tropic,wrong nature zone.
Exotica
A harbinger of Autumn
Katydid is not found here.
