Wildebeest

A haiku

wildebeest — a murmuration of raindrops across the windscreen

—

The scene feels suspended between motion and perception, where the ordinary rhythm of rain briefly gathers the presence of something larger moving beyond the glass. The windscreen becomes a shifting stage, and each drop seems part of a living pattern, reminding us how easily the natural world echoes itself in unexpected forms.

Curious how these small moments become haiku? I’ve written a short guide called *The Three-Minute Haiku System*, which shows a simple way to turn an observation into a draft haiku in just a few minutes. (The above haiku was created using this system.)
