Wings




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!!

  1. 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.
