Category: Haiku Poems About Animals

Late-day sun
A large tortoise lounges
on a backyard stone

Those ribs
A wasting
cow waits

A squirrel stops midway
up the willow tree
We say our goodbyes

The shadow of a hawk
Mouse in a
sunny field

Beneath the daisy
Mouse in a
sunny field

Dying fish in a box
Cigar smoke
on the pier

Her stare
The large
eyed lynx

Her walk
The long
legged lynx

Movement
in the valley below
Sheep

Birds circle
and land
The muskox

Holding my breath
Gaunt bear
in the campground
