A MORNING SONG
(Haikus)
Pall falls around trees
in the gathering storm and
a robin hops down.
in the gathering storm and
a robin hops down.
Out of the forest,
it darts off with a green leaf,
as dark skies clear up.
it darts off with a green leaf,
as dark skies clear up.
Twittering robins
sing incessantly on trees,
bringing in sunshine.
sing incessantly on trees,
bringing in sunshine.
Red breasts bask brightly
as the sun-drenched maple trees
sway with the warblers.
as the sun-drenched maple trees
sway with the warblers.
On my porch, I sip
my morning tea, gently chirp
with the singing birds.
my morning tea, gently chirp
with the singing birds.

Poetic Prompt: The robin hops down the road at his usual speed despite the cold. Five minutes later he flies out of the woods with a bright green morsel.---Dave Bonta, Morning Porch, 06-04-11
