Mandarin duck wades
Ripples in cozy rainbow
Sun rises ahead.
One Two Three Four Five
Walking across wooden bridge
On way to their school.
This Haiku is shared with Carpe Diem and the Prompt is Mandarin Duck.
I enjoyed your haiku. The second haiku is so true to life...ducklings not yet staying in a row and ready for a lesson on life from MoM
