Little owls sit tall
under the midnight blue sky

Now it’s your turn to write a Haiku poem. Remember, your poem should be divided into three lines of five, seven, and five syllables. Think of your words as a camera. You want to try and capture a “snapsot” of the small details on the subject you are writing on. Open your eyes. Look around you. Look out your window. What do you see? Write down the details and turn that into a haiku poem.
Submissions can be sent to yellowfinchdesigns@yahoo.com
Happy Writing!
