'Underwater'

This collection of Haiku was written by Conner Kupferberg, a 9-year-old GATE program student and grandson of Lynn and Don Davis of Rainbow.

The clear blue water

as it flows beneath the land

like the force of wind

The beautiful sea

so generous as it is

grants my weightless wish

A pebble falls down

there’s nothing to block its path

swallowed by the sea

The water grows plants

some of odd shapes and sizes

but still holds beauty

Under the water

not too far from the surface

is my hallowed place
