Animal Haiku
illusions galore
a cat thinks it’s a tiger
and a worm, a snake.//
ladybird so cute
gauzy yellow wings beneath
black-speckled crimson.//
life in the fast lane
for the tortoise and the snail
is not worth the stress.//
lions are the mane thing;
monk seals lead a sheltered life;
bees are the bee’s knees!//
oyster in the sea
when asked what the world is like
says, ‘just like me!’//
peacock struts his stuff;
oyster is a gem to know;
zebra wears jim-jams!//
penguin in a tux
pretty pink flamingo struts...
seashore dusk party!
