Shelter
I dash for coverUnderneath the broad green leaves
Rain drops kept at bay
The dirt gives gently
As the earthworm burrows down
Seeking safe shelter

I dash for coverUnderneath the broad green leaves
Rain drops kept at bay
The dirt gives gently
As the earthworm burrows down
Seeking safe shelter

I like the image of the earthworm! Nice haiku.
Two lovely haiku. Great idea to think of soil as the shelter for earthworms!
Splendidly done! The haiku with the earthworm is really imaginative-it made me smile.

These are both lovely and appropriate to the rainy day we have here.
I hadn't thought of earthworms for years until reading your delightful haiku. Once after a harsh rainstorm in Jordan, hundreds of earthworms were inching along the parking lot at the Marriott Hotel!
I like these natural images very much.
Everybody's covered!
Very sweet haikus!
The images in the haiku are delightful.
I love the image of the earthworm burrowing down for safety. Lovely haiku!
cozy images...it's almost magical how a handful of words can paint such a vivid picture. So well done.
Splendid connection with our mother earth. : )
