Primates

PRIMATES(Haiku and Senryu poetry)

Calm is the monkey
Sharing the same genes with man
Nature made it so.


Though beyond knowledge
Man`s intellect is  pronounced
which makes us unique.

OOOOH! Me likes! This one is going to favorites. Congrats on your win. I absolutely love the way you ties these two verses on as one but completely, and obviously two perfect examples of each form.
