A pretty haiku

Look at its eyes! Their
sparkle! Its luscious lips! Its 
cheeks! Their modest blush!

Note
Nothing to be added. Could have made it even prettier if I hadn’t limited myself to haiku size.

The can’t trust bird shit haiku

Got shat on today,
but all of the numbers I 
drew were shitty duds.

Note
Razor edge of time reporting from the truth front. I was debating with myself whether to make the haiku prettier by using “pretty” instead of “shitty”, but prettiness lost out. After all, it was shit that made me buy two lottery tickets.
