Bald Eagle (Haiku)

Missing image
bald eagle, eyes pierced
etched into frosted azure
lost in vigilance

Author notes

"This is a great form of poetry that flows from my thoughts, though the picture I see is greater, I have summed it all up beautifully in such short verse."

      Thanks again.

      Bald eagles are incredible to look at. I don't get to see them very often, unless it's at the zoo.

      Hi, Cindy!!

      Thank you so much for your comments. I've written quite a few haiku in the last few months. I am so glad to see you on here again. I will have to drop you an e-mail. I've got school today, but fortunately only one class today. I've got 7 books that I have to buy at the college book store today. I can just feel my wallet thinning already.

      The bald eagle is definitely my favorite bird as well. I'm so glad that you enjoyed my haiku. I have two more entries to work on for your contest.
