My Wing Haiku

One of the people I follow on Twitter is the editor for Wild Bird Magazine. Every once in a while she Tweets a contest to write a poem and today she had a Haiku contest. You had to use the word “wing” in the Haiku so I wrote this:

Tree Swallows staging. Flocks are ready to migrate.
On the wing they'll be.


I won and received this prize:
