Haiku Poems About Animals

Haiku Poems About Animals


     Another interesting topic aside from nature are the animals. Animals is a great topic not only for haiku poems but in all aspects. From smallest to biggest or from tamed to wild, we can express our thoughts about them using haiku poems. We can even use our lovely pets as the topic to enhance our skill in making haiku poems.

     A lot of modern haiku use ordinary pets like dogs, cats and birds as the center of the poem.  Of course it also goes the same with wild animals living in the forest. In fact Matsuo Basho used frogs in most of his famous haiku poets. Below is an example.

Furu ike ya                 Old pond!
    kawazu tobikomu       frog jumps in
      mizu no oto                 water’s sound 

Here are more examples of haiku poems about animals.

Haiku Poems About Animals



Howling under the moon
Conditioning the pack
Preparing to hunt

Strong teeth like a steel
Moves with great agility
King of the forest

Roaring from distance
Protecting the territory
Fierce on his eyes

Running fast and quick
Hitch with a carriage behind
Horse moved by a whip

All ducks are quacking
Farm full of friendly creatures
Town is different

Eggs from chicken 
Chicks running behind their mother
Farm is lively!

Living on greenfield
Providing us with fresh milk
Cows eating green grass

Horseback right is great
Feel the air passing through your face
Tiring yet so fun

Hear the birds chirping
Sipping fresh and tasty milk
Live in paradise

Hatch fresh eggs today
Chickens are so noisy
Let them find worms to eat

Wolves are so witty
Hunting preys is they do
Sharp claws are ready

Born in the wild
Twelve strong members in the pack
Lead by an alpha wolf

Sharp strong teeth are out
Ready to kill enemies
Two alphas on sight

Climb trees with bare hands
Swinging and jumping on trees
Monkeys are laughing

Crawling silently
Binding its prey with poison
Venom is flowing

Lurking in the dark
They can't see but they can feel
Bats are mysterious


Barking to protect
Always there to cheer you up
Dogs are man's best friend

The dog is running fast
While chasing a Frisbee ball
They won the first prize

A mouse saw a cheese
Grabbed it without thinking
The poor mouse got trapped

Forgot to lock the cage
The zookeeper is confuse
They got their freedom
