Fanciful blue house, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México
at the dead man’s house
mice tugging another thread
from his winter coat

It’s been years since we visited San Miguel. Remember the Blue Door Bakery?
Love the colour and the painting peeling off the wall.
Have a nice Blue Monday!
At one time, this was a pretty sight. Thanks for playing today.
Happy Blue Monday!
This gives you a really haunted feeling combined with the haiku! The simplicity of the house is restful.
wow, what a wonderful blue building, really fits the theme well.

Very nicely done!
Great blues and always words that seem to make it fit perfectly. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week!
You find so many interesting sights in your area. This would not be one I would probably stop at tho.
Bravo!! This is so perfect!!! I think I would go bonkers with the colours in Mexico…just love this photo!!

Wow.
Rather sombre … but very evocative!
Poignant read.. well penned.
Great Haiku! Such an eerie feel to it.

And nothing is ever wasted, though we think so from the outside.
I actually feel that the mice can have his coat.. mice could have a good winter.
What a haunting poem….some creatures, however, should use his coat…even if it is the mice.
Sad thoughts at first but it is reality and life moves on even for the smallest of critters.
A chilling haiku! What a picturesque, unique photo.
What a very cool image. I dont know how you keep coming up with such original ideas, but am always so happy to read them.
Well the dead man needs the coat no more, go to it mice!
an eerie bleakness here…well expressed…
Such a neatly woven piece..i can’t help but feel the mice will strip his coat to a single thread such is the indifference of many in this world…
A resonance of decay in your haiku, nice one
Much love…
wow…the image this evokes is unreal.
excellently written!
Great image!
Picturesque!
