Haiku Heights # 273 Bat

                                           

                                                    Recently I had posted a blog ('A naughty bat'  on 27th July 2013)when a bat entered my grand daughter's room. I am writing this Haiku depicting her reaction.

                                                                                      A bat gushed in
          making my doll out of wits
     hid behind curtains

                                            

      she  screamed,  trembled,
with eyes closed, the naughty
         bat flew away.

  9. Bats are more afraid of humans, than what humans are of bats.
