On this ancient shore
Once walked terrible lizards
Their footprints remain

A bonus haiku to end the day. As a family we’ve spent many days sifting through stones on the beach looking for fossils. Always fancied finding dinosaur footprints, and on the Isle of Wight I did – although many had no doubt seen these Iguanodon prints before.

Returning to add this poem to Obsidian, I wonder if it would be better like this:

Terrible lizards
Once walked on this ancient shore
