Haiku - Challenge



True challenge within
Stand on a giant’s shoulders
Dolphins help injured


Soar like a falcon
Ride the wind; Run with Longhorns
But learn to walk first 




Join the fun!

it is fairly loose today -
the real challenges are internal -
others lift us up -
Dolphins lift up the injured to keep their head above water at times.

It's a generalization

I have never seen a dolphin yet, I love animals though and would love the experience of swimming with them.
I survived my imaginary trip to papua new guinea though and without being eaten by canibals

definitely a unique and interesting take. I had heard that about dolphins. wonderful creatures. Did you ever watch "Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy"? I was reminded of when they left the planet before it was about to be destroyed singing:

"So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

You may not share our intellect
Which might explain your disrespect
For all the natural wonders that
grow around you

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

The world's about to be destroyed
There's no point getting all annoyed
Lie back and let the planet dissolve

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish

(yeah)

So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad that it should come to this
We tried to warn you all but oh dear?

(oh dear)

Despite those nets of tuna fleets
We thought that most of you were sweet
Especially tiny tots and your
pregnant women

So long, so long, so long, so long, so long
So long, so long, so long, so long, so long

So long, so long and thanks
for all the fish"

We're big "Hitch-hiker" fans in our house. LOL.

Jenn@ You know... that blog? said...

Generalization perhaps, but thought provoking!

Well done :)

Kay said...

a bit confused, do I learn to walk before I swim? Do I learn to swim before I fly?

perhaps I should learn to live, before I die...

thank you for the inspiration!!!
