Haiku Heights April Challenge, day 3 harbor


Hello all,

Day 3 of Haiku Heights April Challenge. Until now I had no problem to write a haiku on the given prompts, but this one harbor isn't easy. But ... never say never ... so I tried and came up with the following haiku.

young dolphins
stranded in the city harbor
hear their sadness

hear their sadness
lost and alone in shallow waters
without their mother

without their mother
crying their lungs out
young dolphins

Portofino Harbor


Well .... see you all tomorrow.

For any creature to be stranded where it doesn't belong is sad...
