I was struggling with the next few pictures and I have several half written attempts which I don't like for each of them. Then it occurred to me that the three pictures in question would actually fit quite well together.
There is a dog. There is a cat. There is a frog sitting on the edge of a pond.
I had seen two children playing under the trees the other day, teaching a dog to fetch a rubber ball, a task it was attempting with considerable enthusiasm but very little skill. Meanwhile, lying in the sun on a nearby garage roof was a large tabby cat, just watching them. There were no frogs in the real picture, but real life is rarely perfect.
Three Haiku
Children and their dog;
Catch-ball choreography
Beneath whispering trees.
The pavilion roof;
A comfortable cat watches
Children and their dog.
Shaded by reeds
Frogs grumble in the water;
Park life surrounds them.
