It’s Alive
First attempt at Haiku, inspired by Salam Khan

Old sourdough starter
Eating flour and water
Alive! Home baked bread
I am killing 2 birds with one stone here (Holly already needed to use this line again today!)
Reading Salam Khan’s article on why he writes Haiku I was inspired to try it out.
This is my first attempt – read this as a new writer’s disclaimer as to why I may have brutalised this beautiful tradition!
The other bird- “ It’s Alive” — today’s prompt from the 31 days of May challenge being run by SCBWI West (Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators) …if anybody feels like participating, please join in.
