icy flakes flutter
feathering an eagle’s nest
early morning snow

My response to Carpe Diem Crossroads #12 young birds are raised
For this episode of Carpe Diem Crossroads we have two haiku written by Ryokan (1758-1831):
river in winter
soaring over peaks
an eagle spots its prey
hedge branches
young birds are raised
morning snow

The challenge is to create a so-called ‘fusion’ haiku from these haiku, creating a symbiosis between them.

I love your take on your the fusion…joining the gentle nesting aspect with the eagle.
