NaPoWriMo Day 4

 Hello!

Today's prompt is to take inspiration from an old book from the 1950's that talks about strange scientific things in the world.  While scrolling through it I found a section about crabs.  It reminded me of this silly inside joke I have with some friends about crabs wearing boots.  So I ran with the idea and wrote this poem.  I decided to go with the haiku format as it's a favourite of mine and I hadn't written any haikus yet this year.  Enjoy!


The life of a crab
wearing boots and a top hat
run along the beach

Legion of war crabs
step in perfect formation
dive down into sand

The Jedi sea crab
with anemones in hand
attack any threats


Thanks for reading!
