Your challenge: write a haiku featuring one of the subjects discussed here in the past seven days: song sparrows, bird calls, or something from Monday's nature quote. Feel free to mine the comments, too.
Post your haiku or limericks in the comments, below. Remember the pattern of a haiku is:
First, 5 syllables,
the second line has seven.
And 5 at the end.
A limerick is a wee bit more complicated. Here's one description.

Re: Monday's nature quote:
ReplyDeleteHow much one can learn
Just by paying attention
In one's own backyard!
To the song sparrow:
ReplyDeleteMy heart swells when your throat calls
Across the daylight
Song in the chorus
ReplyDeleteI hear you on spring mornings
announcing the dawn.
Yay! Nice work, R & D!
ReplyDeleteI hear the birds call,
ReplyDeletetheir song so cheerful, I smile.
