Haiku For Hidden Habitats

Haiku for Hidden Habitats Mournful doves coo Bullfrogs call from tall green reeds Traffic rushes by Fox quietly treads Rabbits from their warrens peak Traffic rushes by Snake moves soundlessly the hawk glides on wind whispers Traffic rushes by Shy yellow flutters Doe statues stand in the field Traffic rushes by Traffic rushes by Unaware of hidden gifts Precious habitats Written after walking in open space near a highway

Those folks who are rushing past these beautiful gifts of nature will never know what they missed. Only a talented poet like you could make such an observation. A round of applause for this great haiku series! Love, Carolyn
