Notes:
Sharon Cohen creates Haiku in non-traditional 3, 5, 3 pattern to practice the art of pithiness and to break writer's block. She also bends and breaks the rules for traditional Haiku, adapting them to her own design as follows:
Haiku do not tell stories and almost never involve people's actions. Haiku simply convey an abstract concept -- usually an emotion.
Haiku will generally present contrast. Creating these contrasts can be the hardest part. The Haiku poet wants a perfect catalyst to spark the right emotional note.
Haiku usually focus around imagery. Sharon Cohen's Haiku is often paired with a photograph from which the Haiku is inspired.
Challenge for the Reader:
Relating to the photograph provided, the reader is challenged to submit their own Haiku of any style and pattern, in the comments section below.

Or perhaps even funnier would be,
"I do think" ... "I've seen this before" ... "I do think"
With the "senior moments" I'm beginning to have, I just have to do this one, lol.
"I do think" ... "This is familiar" ... "Am I right?"
