Haiku Friday: Bears!

 


I've often thought that our national animal really should be the bear. Bears are much-loved by Americans, after all. Let's haiku about them this week-- whether it is a panda, a terrifying Grizzly, or a familiar teddy bear. Here, I will go first:

Forests would improve
If bear patrols were in charge
Litterbugs would scram!

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun....

Comments:
Favorite bear is Pooh
Loves snacks and all his good friends
Piglet, Eyore, Owl
 
Smokey and Pooh Bear
A sartorial contrast
No shirt or no pants?
 
Paddington Bear, chic...
Gallooshes, rain hat and coat
A forever friend
 
Love the bear who says
Only you can prevent fires!
Forest bear who cares 🌲

 
Drove 2 hours to
see Smokey’s gravesite. Who’d have
thought they’re closed Mondays?
 
Sis had a teddy—
“Poopsie Bear Growler”, who shared
Bed and kisses then.
 
Who was Boo-Boo to My
Yogi? To be crazy—Your
Bud always says ,”yes!”
 
I want to have tea—
With a bear. Eatgrowl my scones—
In one gulp eclairs!
 
If I could but bear
Love like firefly lanterns
World might know the why

 
The bear noir carries
Truth of the forest : Humans!
Garbage gourmets thrive.
 
He was white—it’s been
So long ago. Fur rubbed off—
Farewell ! Mom culls bear!
 
Smokey comic book
An inspiration! Real Bear
Just slept at the zoo
 
Smokey comic book
An inspiration! Real Bear
Just slept at the zoo
 
Yogi was smarter
Than the Average, Breezly
was just as clever
 
Gentle Ben, sort of
a Shark Jump after Flipper
Prefer Mr. Ed
 
Howard sits in ambush
Waiting for the rogue black bear
Protects doomed cabin
 
Sea kayaking in
British Columbia; the
Best bears are not seen!
