Finite Life

Hungry hawk gliding, below he spots rabbit-prey; life is so finite!

Thanks, I need to do that, as well. This year is flying by so fast that by the time I list some poetry, half of the day's gone.

I love watching programs on Wildlife and it's beauty, but it's when one views the killing to live makes me feel sad but I know it's part of the pattern of survival. Nice Haiku MLK, James :)

Yes, sadly, survival is not easy for many. I love wildlife shows too and I'm glad you stopped by to read and comment. Thanks

Yes, life is the way it is meant to be with or without a dark ending. I love this Haiku!

Nice Haiku. I like the exclamation point at the end; to me it changes the point of view from just the animals to the rest of us

Very nice example. Yes life is so finite. We know something, want everything and get nothing. Thank you so much.

Sad but true. Yet I believe one can connect with the infinite if one tries hard enough. Peace & Love Matthew Anish
