Spring Pond


                                peepers chirp love songs
                                looking for single misses
                                blue heron watches

Well penned. But last line should have 5 syllables. Merry Christmas

Hello Anisha, Thank you. Glad you liked the Haiku. Thank you for pointing out my error. It should end Heron stands watching. When I started Haiku I was wedded to the Japanese form. I have taken classes and read since that many writers have gotten away from the 5-7-5. Thanks again Oliver
