a maple seed
twirls down...the dog
nearly catches it
About Masago
- Masago
- Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
- From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

Link with 874: Egg / Seed.
[Dogs are known to try and eat just about anything. The more disgusting the better. Sometimes they will also try and catch odd things moving around them. Cats, especially kittens, do this too but they seldom fail to miss their mark.]
"nearly" - perfect!!
I try to catch them, too.
Ours fall in early summer

Nearly caught before life can begin. Excellently penned!!
"nearly" makes this haiku work.
