Haiku Sunday #4 – More of My Neighborhood

For this week’s photo challenge, we were asked to share a picture of our neighborhood and I posted a view of the snowstorm through my front portico. If you imagine looking just to the right of that portico, you might see this on a warm summer day. This young buck likes to hang out there cooling himself and enjoying the shade. So here’s your haiku challenge: either write a haiku about our Mule deer friend or about what you might see outside your front door!

Young Buck

Young Buck

Smiling for a pic
young buck sleeps in the cool shade
Is that a problem?

    Seems to want a treat
    But unsure if it is right

    Must settle for shade

  12. ok here goes! (after 20 minutes of deep, hard effort for my first attempt at haiku!!) 😀
    She sits docile and meek
    Serene on a bed of tender green
    A heart leaps in delight!
