Haiku – 3/30/2017

Woodpecker, song birds

Filling up the morning air

Spring alive with sound

    These are not songs of spring … they are songs of DEATH! The woodpecker and song birds make sounds as they mercilessly stalk their prey. Each one, a mocking tone of the death which approaches. How can this be celebrated? Just think of the poor caterpillars which shriek in terror at each fleeting note and drum of wood. Just think of them! Oh the inhumanity! 😥

      I never thought about the poor caterpillars. Yes, the inhumanity.

        The caterpillars will be gladdened, that their plight has entered your heart. Oh, that others too would turn!

        I’ll write a special Haiku for them. Let them have the win this time.
