Eve Roper Poet Haiku

Termites Cq

aging darken
dead ember wood 
creaking left bare
eating termites 

in colonies
hard destructive
winged eating bugs
hollow out trees

Andrea Dietrich September 20, 2019 at 6:07 PM Nice to see what you wrote on . You picked an insect that I think would be very scary to see around one's house and then wonder what damage they might be inflicting(unseen). Congrats on the win, Eve.

Caren Krutsinger September 1, 2019 at 10:11 PM I can almost see those termites running along the rotted out wood, enjoying a wonderful day of pure teamwork, Eve.
