Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: Keech is a slang word used in various parts of Scotland for bird poo. You're welcome. Definitely the last one. Now. I feel certain I am the only one to tackle birds pooing for the Sky-Ku challenge. I am happy with that.

The Quiet Influence
The Quiet Influence An oracle on steadiness, softness, and returning to oneself Author’s Note This piece was written from a place of quiet integration rather than urgency—a moment when nothing needed to be solved, proven, or pushed through. I wrote it for those who are discovering that healing doesn’t always arrive as a breakthrough, but sometimes as a gentle settling into presence. If this feels anticlimactic, tender, or unexpectedly emotional, you’re not doing it wrong. You’re likely learning how to rest without disappearing—and how to let yourself be held without effort.

When I learn a new word, then it’s definitely worth the read. Thank you for putting a smile on my face.
When this one ends up on the front page, then they will have no choice but to give into our demands and make the Dishonorable (no "u" 🦅🏈) Mention category an official part of the Leaderboard 😎
I am laughing to hard to write a proper comment
"Ass choc" 😂
Haha. Well done! And eww.
Haha!! It would be fun to see people compete for dishonorable mention!! Thanks for sharing keech with us!
Ain't that the truth and especially after you wash your car. Really great work and makes one giggle.
This is a pretty shitty ditty! Not the best of my rhymes, your haiku is definitely better and I hope it gets a mention with nothing dishonourable about it.
I think you could have worked more with the myriad hues of bird poo...
Keech rhymes with quiche. Thank me later 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Also, I'm lost, what's Dishonourable Mention?
Damn, Paul! Dishonorable mention should be a thing! This would definitely win that. No doubt there are several hundred entries to this challenge that I did not read. But I'm going out on a limb to agree that only you could write a bird poo inspired Haiku. And that pic! The car looks the Easter Bunny crapped all over it.
I was laughing from dishonourable mention leader board... because I know you and would live there!! 😂 Then you went and dropped "ass choc" not literally (I hope) and I lost it!! 🤣 Man, I appreciate your sense of humour!!
Haha! Oh man you made me laugh! I hope this wins.
Bahahah! Yes!! I hope this places! Dishonourable mention though ? Surely not lol
Ps - You must be overfeeding the birdies over there ~Whew ~ btw; Please tell Brit~Cj she owes me inspiration royalties$ j.bud.in.la.
This is brilliant. Good luck, Paul. You got a well deserved laugh from me, and yes this stuff always lands on my husband's car when we park in town!
well-- this last entry takes a definite shittier tone compared to the others!
Well you can have the shit prize for that Paul 😂
"Ass choc" is my phrase of the month now!
