The Wise Pounce on Me


The Height of Haiku Challenge Day 12 Prompt: Flood


One little mistake
Attracts a flood of advice
The wise pounce on me...

****

Elephant and Ant
Watch moon, flood of emotions
Keeps them sombre, night flows..

    Advice often given with love, does not always work. Nice work. I see the ant and elephant and the ant are still buddies.

    Yes there are those who are always there to give their advice, but not their forgiveness..

    Elephant and Ant
    Watch moon, flood of emotions
    Keeps them sombre, night flows..

    Ah, dawn of time breaks
    trunk and antennae entwined
    watching the sunrise.

    Love the first one here - very easy to relate to the situation and you catch it.

    I guess you are right...people who give advice think they are wise, and they literally, not figuratively, POUNCE on you. Haha, I like this haiku. It serves as a reminder to me not to give advice when it is not asked for.
