Haiku: Birds, Flowers, Trees

Little flower buds We are very small
Even if no one can see but the things inside our hearts
Open away could fill up the sky

The ambitious crow. Which of these are we?
We see a twig on her beak Shall we hide or brightly shine?
but she sees a home We cannot do both

From a great distance If you look closer
branches pierce the sapphire sky you might find something hidden
like dark lightning bolts deep in the shadows

but branches up close if you look closely
will tell another story: you can see marvellous things
one of potential that yearn to be seen
