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
