Silence is an Owl
silence is an owl on
a hunt, its talons on a branch
alert for prey, flies away
wisdom
wisdom comes only
after living many years
observing nature
Small Birds
small birds eating seed
left behind for them
seem utterly unaware

Author's Notes: Contest Entry Poems for "Sensual Haiku" Contest -- Three Haiku by poetrandy
I have taken the meaning of "sensual" not as sexy, per say, but using the senses -- hope this clears up the subject of these Haiku!

Interesting. You took sensual as its literal and original meaning. Cool. You use the traditional form pretty well I think. Wisdom was a subtle bit of just that. My favorite of the three. Well done.
