I think I caught a bit of haiku fever this morning, too.
I hope you haven't been taking your first one literally yourself? LOL
I like the second one the best...but, of course, it is the most traditional.
I like the 17 youthfully unemployed, smiling happily. New high school graduates?
Three
Nice, a three-fer!
one. I love to watch people exercise.
two. Dangerous river and dragon too.
three. Adults employed too and unable to support their children.
All three where interesting and thoughtful but I enjoyed the second one best.
cheers, parsnip
Three haiku, most fine,
leave me wanting more. Good news -
Dave will provide more.

Thanks Everyone
I definitely get the impression that most folk prefer the traditional haiku, which cheers me enormously. Though the others can be fun, it's the traditional form that holds depth and gravitas - sorry if that makes me a wet blanket.
The thing about the unemployed youth, was that I saw it as another example of how folk ass ume they must always smile when confronted by a camera lens - well, a few exceptions, but on the whole they do.
