Definitely a Haiku poem with all the qualifications. I love that you wrote about nature. Nature is so mysterious and heaven all in one. Thank you for sharing and best wishes in the contest

A serene scene indeed - just as long as there are no dogs around! Bunnies and squirrels have a way of winning our hearts, though here in Australia, rabbits are a real pest - and I know quite a few people who regard grey squirrels as tree rats - especially in areas where they have displaced the red squirrels. Squirrel Nutkin - now there's a real sweetie!

    Serenity, I guess is in the eye of the beholder. Over here, especially for gardeners, rabbits can be a problem, but those little bunnies are really cute. Thanks for the read and the comments.

Nice 5-7-5. Love the closing satori-like line. Nature's scheme indeed. Love seeing animals cavorting. if only humans would do more of that! Since the first two lines are interconnected, I recommend not capping line two:

Amid blades of green
bunnies and squirrels cavort
Serenity's scheme

Fins alliteration & consonance of S plus alliteration of B and consonance of C-Q, R, D and L sounds.

Sounds good read aloud.

Warmly,
r d
