Spring morning haiku
Spring birds arrive in pairs;
Some linked together for life;
Then forever severed.
Monogamous Birds
There are a few species of birds that meet, court and form pair bonds that result in many offspring, year after year, until one of the pair dies. For nearly all swans, geese, ducks, cranes, storks and a few others, long-term monogamy is the preferred relationship.

A haiku is a type of Japanese poem that always uses the same number of syllables in a three-line format:
- the first line is five syllables
- the second line is seven syllables
- the third line is five syllables
Traditionally, haiku are about nature. One common theme explored by historical and modern haiku poets is seasonal changes. Often, a haiku focuses on a single moment in time and, in many cases, juxtaposes two images.
