Prey (5 Haiku)

a small gray squirrel
plays atop the almond trees
the brown hawk listens

jack rabbit races
hot asphalt provides the track
old car wins the bet

snow bunny scampers
little red fox comes alive
dinner is in sight

wolf pack track their prey
nature’s voice splits the cold air
evergreens bow down

salmon travel home
bear endure the freezing stream
nature loves her own

Outstanding haiku images that emphasize the "what'wrong" with this world. Always the prey and the victim - a constant theme. Thank you for this offering, Lori. Well done. Love and peace to you. Regis

It's the law of the jungle. That little bunny is trying to get home only to make a tasty treat for the fox. :) It's better to be higher on the food chain. Nice one, Lori. Love, Alex
