Straying from Haiku
A rhyming poem instead
I hope you enjoy!
Alaskan outdoors wild and free
Born was I to a big family
Cold and harsh the weather
Dark the days half the year
Everyone had wooly coats
Freeze though we don’t
Grateful for the snow
Happy to nap in its glow
Inuits taught us well
Justly with humans we wish to dwell
Knowing our intelligence
Like to work at any chance
Many of us began to starve
No one fed us so snow we carved
Only if we could break the chains
Perhaps we’d run free again
Quiet and death lurked in the air
Rescue humans came for usΒ with care
Sadness and love they felt for me
Today I am happy and free
Under lots of care and love
Victoriously I’ve overcome
Worry, fear, and anxiety
X-ceptional my Mama’s love for me
Yes, now my new family:
