Forest Collection
crisp rainy morning
leaves blanket wet forest ground ~
hidden hare haven
barren trees sparkle
sunrays warm frosty branches ~
forest awakens
amber pine needles
hide visible forest paths ~
public hiatus

Whiteness Contest
Sea caps, white, shadows
Fin, cutting above surface
White caps part, Great White
Herons calling out
Congregating over cove
A gaggle of clouds
Eagle soars above
Snowshoe hare, new tracks, no hare
Disguise of whiteness

What Does the Fox Say
quietly sitting
dark eyes watching the world pass
singing his own song
red through the forest
tail his rudder as he goes
if a fox can smile
a hare passes by
lifting his nose he goes on
maybe tomorrow
Woo-oo-oo-ooo

gregarious wolf
monogamous mating pair ~
voracious young yowl

rapacious wolf snuffles snow ~
nimble hare cowers
alpha female reigns
wolf pack provides provisions ~

Hyena Called Hyenas
Hyena called hyenas
to teach them humility
but a fight broke out
They shouted and fought
other animals laughed loud
many broke their ribs
The Hare told them
Do not wear oversize cloth
Think before you try

Oat Nut Bread
The radio speaks
of race- children laugh in the dark.
The big eared squirrel
with coffee bean eyes
knows why I toss oat-nut bread
to the Autumn chill.
A sand- colored hare
softly hops, catches my breath.
The sailor sees land.

H-eart of poetry
A-ims to entertain readers
I-n different forms.
K-eep up the good work,
U-sing old and new designs,
S-hare them with the world.
T-hink about the styles
I-n composing verse or rhyme,
C-hoosing the right words.
