Spring’s sun melts snow
Hawk’s shadow warns too late —
Seeds left uneaten.

This week, write the haikai poem of you choice (haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, renga, etc.) that alludes to the hawk (taka)

This is my second attempt at a haiga.  Any constructive criticism is welcome.

    I read that a haiga was a haiku poets painting of everyday life. And to me your haiga does just that. A very seasonal painting of a specific locality.
