My explanation for this Haiku follows in commets

👇

AnnCrystal Ravens and Crows have a bad reputation.

Well it's true that some people use their Medicines for bad, or their form is used by those who are negative (like Skinwalkers or daemons), the true essence of Ravens and Crows are not evil.

Many Native American Indigenous tribes hold Ravens and Crows in high esteem for various reasons.

A Trickster personality with powerful “good“ Medicine.

👇
23m
AnnCrystal Understandably, these birds are naturally weary of humans...and if betrayed, Ravens and Crows do not easily forgive.

Yet, be friendly by not angrily chasing them away, adding the larger nuts to your bird feeder, or humming a delightful song whenever you see one of these birds could begin earning you friendship...not just with the ones you personally encounter, but with Ravens and Crows for miles around and generations of them to come.

👇
23m
AnnCrystal Because these birds share information about both foes and friends with each other and with their offsprings.

So, if you begin being nice to your neighborhood Ravens and Crows...DON'T try to pet them or feed them by hand...just be “nice“ and you may earn their friendships.

AnnCrystal These birds may even begin sensing when you need them around.

Ravens and Crows can sense energies, they are drawn by energies.

It's one of the things that give these birds a bad reputation. Good or bad energies, they are drawn by it.

👇
22m
AnnCrystal If you are feeling lonely, invisible, depressed, or sad... sometimes local Ravens or Crows will fly over to lend you some of their medicines. And if you are lucky enough, they will share their greatest of medicines by giving some good natured humor or by Ravens gifting the sound of their laughter.

They also want to celebrate with you, or just check up on you and say hello...so always keep an eye out.

AnnCrystal Long explanation shortened, I wrote this Haiku from my American Indigenous cultural prospective 😉✍️🐝💝. (edited) 18m
dabbe Your words in the haiku and after helped me to learn! I love to learn! I adore ravens and crows and always try to chat pleasantly with them when I see one. Poe's “The Raven“ is in my top five fave poems of all time. 🖤🐦‍⬛🖤 10m

Still a day behind in my haikus but here is yesterday‘s inspired by the Okinawan Sweet Potatoes I was eating in my car. I‘m not a big sweet potato fan in general, but these purple beauties I love.

A slice in my hand
Creamy, perfectly purple
Quiet comfort food

A majestic tree
once stood proudly in our 'hood.
Felled by new owners.

Let‘s not even discuss yesterday. 🫣🤕😵‍💫🤤😵🙄😳😱 I didn‘t get a chance to post my haiku inspired by it, so here goes:

“What fresh hell awaits?”
As I open my laptop
Monday in HR
