A caterpillar
Intuits its own potential,
then builds a cocoon
Today's prompt for Haiku Heights is 'divine.'
I'm having lots of fun and learning so much about haiku by doing this month-long exercise with the bloggers at Haiku Heights.
The daily prompt challenges me to look at words and meanings in a new way, write succinctly, observe my surroundings, and then write a verbal snapshot of a moment in time.
By linking to Haiku Heights, I can take a virtual tour to other inspired blogs to see how they interpreted the prompt. It feels like I've tripped into a cornucopia of haiku.
And for my readers who are wondering, I AM planning to post something new, not necessarily measured in syllables, perhaps in the next few days!!

The butterfly's intuition and ability are magical, and yes, divine. Very nice, Barbara. P.S. Thanks for letting me know my link on HH wasn't working. I appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteI did the same thing!
DeleteMade me smile thinking about an intuitive caterpillar. Divine plan indeed.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your haiku today and the image as well. I like your middle line "Intuits its own potential," Woulf that we could do the same :-)
