haiku

this early morning
along the black ribbon road
coyote races


     I don't often see a coyote during the day.  I hear them calling at night more often.  But I did see one today.  The moment it saw me, it took off running down the road trying to quickly get away.  I thought the event was worthy of a haiku. 
Can you find five minutes today to try writing your own haiku?  Have fun.

      Yes, the sight isn't exactly the thing you can dial up. I yanked my camera out, but by the time I got the lens in view the coyote was gone.

      Thanks, Linda. Weekends are busy, so sometimes it is hard to write something longer. It is just a joy to be able to treasure these moments.
