Five Haiku by Christina Chin



Haiku


predator... 

Japanese tits combine alert calls

 


night chorales

the song spring peepers tweet

 


songs atop cattail

blackbirds compete for a mate

 


returning birds adopt foreign accents 

tweak their tunes

 


spring cornfield

snow geese grazing waste grains
