In the leafless tree
the crow alit on a branch
and preened in light rain.

  1. I just wrote a haiku about a squirrel under a tree....

    Anyway, I like it.

  2. Hi Al! I went to look for your squirrel Haiku, but it's not posted on your blog.

  3. Because it was horribly written! It was just a funny thing that we both wrote about leafless trees with some sort of creature.

    1. Hey, it can't be that bad! If you want, post it here. Almost no one reads my blog, so it won't be too embarrassing.

  4. Squirrels frightened by
    shadows under leafless trees
    and petrified bark.

    It's ridiculous.

    1. Al, it made me laugh! And not because it is ridiculous, although it may well be, but because of the juxtaposition of images. So, well done, IMO. TY for sharing.
