I am proud to have one of my haiku selected for this week’s THF Haiku Dialogue! The theme was ‘failure’… and I felt sure the dung beetle, rolling his hoarded treasure toward home and oblivious to the danger, was surely headed for it! Blessings and peace, my friends.

the dung beetle blunders
into milling hooves
Word picture you created has me rooting for the beetle and hoping he makes it!
Thanks, Natalie! Those little dung beetles are fearless and hard workers…regardless of heat, dirt, and stench. I root for them too.
I really enjoyed that together with Just us two, A fellow traveler, 500 times, No squirrels out and Silence…..again, really enjoyed!
Thanks, Brian! Means a lot to have you comment! 👍
