Your challenge: write a haiku or limerick featuring one of the subjects discussed here in the past seven days: National Parks subway map, fracking, baby manatees, 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.
Kindly post your haiku or limerick in the comments, below.

You can hear yourself think
and your problems will shrink
from inferno to merely a spark.
