damselfly
a blue wisp
of a whisper

Katydid

Green katydid played
cool songs by rubbing its wings
made "insectious" tunes!

Millions of feet dancing..
Like raindrops on my hand
On a emerald green stage



for contest Insect on a leaf

falling rock cut tree 
thick resin flow insect trap
amber time capsule

       so how was your life
   yeah i was expecting more 
       the day went so fast

haiku

warming days and nights
tree full of cherry blossoms 
cicadas first stir

butterflies and bees

berries burst sweetly on tongue

daisies everywhere

solitary bees -

freedom sampled, but never

a taste of honey

mournful cries fill the air
mother bird calling for its baby
eaten by the cat

mantis catches butterfly
I am sad: yet, that is 
the way of nature

loud feathered thud
- flight into eternity
deceptive glass pane

along the pathway
thousands of soldier ants match--
hot sunny day.



CONTEST:"Any Haiku Will Do" sponsored by SKAT-AUX

hot humid summer
no solace to cicada;
calls loud to find mate

     Cricket - Haiku

missing legs and sound
forest, rainless storm rages
remembers cricket

perched on the treetops
iguana closes its eyes
soaking in the sunshine

the new doorkeeper 
of this deserted house
- one mister spider

6 am and falling rain
bed! how cosy you feel
this morning

dappled bees
sucked into
honeysuckle

what new plant is this
flowering bees this morning
and butterflies too?

running to and fro
a group of ants in action
searching for food

bathed in the sunshine
shimmering pools of water
pulsating with life

Houseflies are dying...
A sign from Mother Nature.
She'll bring Winter soon.

Dragonflies Wishes  ©

Dragonflies set in my yard
I feel doubly blessed by that
With patented fly-byes
They magically anoint 
Me in faery dust

wings of gossamer  
gently pulsating the air
butterflies in flight


tail of dragonfly
skimming the water's surface
while taking a drink


bark of an old tree
weather-beaten and furrowed
a home for insects

butterfly, flower, garden, insect, nature, valentines day,

Tiny rose buds speak
Of massive blooms appearing 
Branches help to balance!

Rose Nectar will bring
Butterflies from high
Pollinate the blooms!

My fragrant rose blooms
Draws bees , butterflies and ants
Towards its pollen.

Creepy-crawley bugs;
Grandmother Spider weaves her
many silken gems.

Ice crystals on
Spiders web
Preserve future food

     Cosmic Contract Soul Mate - Haiku

universe at large
opens up, looks down, confers
bug winks back, confirmed

perched on the branch
tree lizard puffs up its chest
like a balloon

dancing in the dark
fireflies paint lines of light 
in exquisite designs

a buzzing bee
the sleeping dog awakens
then bolts from the room

ancient redwood gleams
softly through the mists of time…
mayfly flitters by

moonbow
a luna moth clings

Non-stop Tremolo
conjuring an airborne quake
tsunami of noise

bees
pollinating sustenance –
Monsanto

cryptic cicada
nocturne of tymbals thrumming
cicatrix in brain

dead silence of night
my last breath in abeyance
for cicada song

The ant steps lightly
gathering crumbs and messy
spills from hungry mouths.

It trembled in fear
because none had traversed
a human, alive.
