Notes About The Poem



The lamp post is lit


Bugs flutter towards the light


The cat waits to pounce

Night

The lamp post is lit


                                    Bugs flutter towards the light


                                      The cat waits to pounce






First try at Haiku

Excellent job. Are you sure you haven't written a haiku before? This one's finely tuned. Kathy

Not a bad first haiku. Keep writing them.
