Carpe Diem - Butterflies; Writer,'s Digest - Descendence

I'll soon start to keep my haiku at different memes and challenges in the same post.


My haiku for Carpe Diem, a daily haiku. Today it's all about butterflies:

a stroll through the woods
in the winter cold and snow -
dreaming butterflies

For the Writer's Digest Poetic Asides Prompt nr. 212, a haiku sequence about descendence that I didn't post yet because they seem to have a problem.



Evolution

present becomes past:
sustained metamorphosis –
evolution key

Darwin's theory –
more than a controversy:
plain reality

humans admiring
some rare specimens at zoo:
chicken or egg first?

fossilized monkeys:
searching for the missing link,
some unknown species

  5. Oh, I like that, dreaming butterflies. So succinct, and yet it says it all. The evolution one is interesting, too. I liked the what you pulled into it.
