Tiger (haiku)



Furious Creature

Majestic in it's nature

Often hunts its prey

With orange and black

Its stripes covers it body

Blends in with nature

Creature dangerous

Strikes without a single thought

So viewer beware

Long to its young

Protects them furiously

Strangers stay away

It's Fast and Mighty

Its muscles built for power

Faster than others

His in the jungle

Hidden so its prey can't see

Waiting patiently

Keeping very still

The sick and young beware

Unaware attacked

Catching you off guard

So keeping your young close to you

Before of danger

I find Haiku fun and unique, I wanted to write a haiku about an unusual items and the images that this item brings into my mine such as the tiger from Asia
