10 haikus of nature
By Anthony Nixon sandberg
In the morning light
The glistening dew on plants
Looks like a rainbow
A little rabbit
Scurrying across the ground
Looking for breakfast
The birds are chirping
Calling to their families
Ready for hunting
In the heat of noon
Animals look for water
Or a shady place
The fox is stalking
The small scurrying rabbit
Readying to pounce
Shimmering rivers
Running all through the forest
Filled with scaly fish
Twilight is coming
The animals running off
To comfortable holes
The birds are flying
All the way back to their nests
So they can go sleep
The night has fallen
And the daylight has left us
Shadows above us
When midnight has come
The process of life repeats
And life can go on
