Oh, how she could reach

by Kristina Woodhill

Octopus fingers extending
Always her perpetual smile
My purse stays hidden

Author's Note: An interesting challenge and prompt at our poetry meet-up. Try a haiku assigning an animal to someone you know.

Nice done Kristina...well put. Reminds me of someone I know...at least a younger form of himself.

Tactical, tactile; tentatively tackled. Might be a Tea Party?

what's left to lose a purse could contain, the world within the pouch, without which the possession of, becomes naked anew. Clutching piece. Creeping peripherals. Sirens not only sing, they smile.
