Another fine haiku by Maureen Virchau.
I particularly like the clever construction of the second line with its alliteration recreating the haunting sounds of the crow.
Thanks for sharing this, though I hope it is not autobiographical.

There is a sense of loss and loneliness, magnified by the empty field and a lone crow cawing. Beautiful and subtle.

Little by little you help me see the beauty of the Haiku form.

I'm a great lover of crows, friendly, and helpful, with a sense of humor, much needed when around human animals. :-)
Wonderful haiku that includes haiku, thank you!
