Tahera Mannan Poet Haiku

The Dinosaurs

The big Allosaurus
Loved to bite its neighbour
Guzzle blood by gallons

The Apatosaurus
Laid eggs in sand nest
An ugly herbivore

A few had wings to fly
Giant beaks and piercing eyes
Stole fledgling from nests

But lived long ago
That we may never learn or know
whether could be good pets
