I liked the subject of this haiku. You captured the feeling of the eagle catching the fish. The poems are well written and you can feel the eagle gliding across the water. Then catching the fish in his talons . Then gracefully moving up into the sky. Well done.

Hi Sis Cat:

If I had to choose a favorite of the two it would be the first one. I especially liked the transition from line one to line two: fish - swishes, the alliteration in the first line was nice, too, also transitioning the "G" sound into the second line.

Nice work!

Kim

OMGosh, your first one is so awesome. The eagle taking the first for a ride in the air. What a vivid image. "air apparent" a fantastic satori. I can imagine the fish struggling to breath.

The second haiku is very good as well.
eagle flies fish
towards spring eaglet's gaping beak
seafood flown daily
The image is very beautiful, baby eagles waiting for their food via air delivery from mom or dad. Very picturesque.
A terrific haiku duet!

Love the picture and poem. Poor fish and yet good the Eagle can eat. Tells the tale of existence - survival of the fittest - haiku duet (air) unsure of what this means but I think it seems to me that haiku is a very light and airy type of poetry or maybe that is only two I have read so far. Love both of them I read. - Great Job - Sarah

A very well-written haiku duet. An eagle can easily scoop up a fish from the water and flies with it to the nests where the eaglets are waiting hungrily.

    Oh, thank you, Sandra, for your review. I was astounded to see a bald eagle carry a fish.
