I chose this weeks literature prompt as it is the anniversary of the birth of Theodor Seuss Geisel – Dr Seuss. He would be the ripe old age of 110 this Sunday, March 2nd. I would like to thank Anja for pointing that out to me.

Although the literary prompt brings forth loads of idea, the photo threw a poem to the fore, so I have used that today. I may use the good Doctor later in the week.

If you want to see what it’s all about, head over to Haibun Thinking and take a look around, or go and see what others have written here.

When I originally saw this photo, I immediately had the thought of Nina Simone’s song I’m Feeling Good.

Rain fills the birdbath with water
The table stands awaiting guests
Avian creatures circle above
Contemplating taking rests

Food thrown on…
