This is part of Ronovanwrite’s Weekly Haiku Challenge. Today I have chosen to do a Tanka.
heavy laden tree
russett coloured apples fall
the wasps eat them all.
sadly as they fall they rot.
wasps enjoy what we do not.

Good one! I personally don’t like wasps (they’re scary!), but I’m happy that they make use of uneaten, fallen fruit.

Yes I am the same, they are a strange insect they have no real purpose in life. 💜

At least something is enjoying them! And, if we cannot eat them, then, by going back to the earth, the feed for the next year…

Yes indeed it is just nature’s way. 💜

Nature is pretty perfect when we don’t mess with it, don’t you think? 🧡

Yes I do, she’s has an answer for everything and also a plan for all time.
