Birmingham Haikus

Der frohlicher Monch

Wanderkneipe;

No wonder Victoria 

Looks the other way

Have just realised

This Dortmunder Union

Could have been a Pimms.

A haiku for each

Painting in the gallery;

How long would it take?

'Never morning wore

To evening but some heart did

Break', Walter Langley.

Why does this painting

With its simple subject, melt

My heart so quickly

Will retirement be

Like this; ticking off the hours

Until the next meal?
