King of the jungle
Ruling behind zoo bars 
Locked up royalty

innocent white lamb
                                deep darkness; shades of crimson
                                           golden lion roars

The lion roars
As if he can scare
The thunderstorm

She hires a lion
As a bodyguard
The chicken

no thoughts like Scarecrow
no heart to break like Tinman
no courage like Lion

calico housecat
appears bearing limp chipmonk...
meeeeow meeeow meee 

When does a female lion roar?

In the wilderness 
A lion cub knows it when
It is the new king

a lion rolls
in golden dirt
stinking like his brother

blow your horn
turn your lights on
stand up and be
counted
be a champion
for you were born a
cat
and you grew 
to be a lion

Laying under tree
Mane flowing teeth bearing grin
King of the jungle

king of the jungle
fierce protective playful strong
in their own domain

You bought a baby lion
And you didn't tell
Then you made me watch as you wrestled it
You laughed and blinked

A fateful blink for that was your last
Off you fell to your chilling lust.

Haiku Trilogy 


Fox poises mid-step

Rabbit scent tantalizes

Mouth waters wildly

 

Eyes peer intently

Haunches crouched, slung low to ground

Biding time to spring

 

Mountain lion growls

Padded feet part tall grasses

Hunter now hunted

©R.Selena Howard-Rowland,2012

A hungry lion
sits beside the victim like...
a repentant Cain

Leo living large
Lion lying in his lair
Big belly bloated

Zebra and Zebu
Warily watching, worried
Ready to run

Fatigued full feline 
Snoozes in the savannah
Animals amble


For Chris D. "Aechtner's Alliterative" Haiku contest.

fearless lion roars
a hush falls over the crowd-
clowns empty buckets

Angry like a bear
Wild like an uncaged lion
Cunning like a snake

GRAY WHISKERED LION
PROUDLY STRUTS ACROSS HOT SAND
WISDOM ON THE WIND

NATURE SPEAKS(satirical Haiku)

The wind blows heavy
The branches of trees dancing
Baboon is thrown out.

The Bird  is singing
Butterflies feed on  nectar
Chameleon  dormant.

The bee is buzzing
flame of the forest blossoms
....And the lion king dies.

black lion rests well
waiting to be fed by queens
his life must be nice

Lion cloud spirits
	thunder erupts the heavens
faeries drench the earth

The mighty lion
sees his own face in the pool.
Does he get frightened?

He drinks of the pool
after a meal of  fresh meat.
Is his parched throat quenched?

He lays in the shade
resting his weary eyelids.
What haunts his nightmares?

Lion
~~~~
King of the jungle
Lord of his own destiny
The power, the pride

birds stop singing...
zebras panic and run
as lion roars

at the water hole 
a sleeping lion awakes  ~
gazelles raise their heads

a fleeing giraffe 
hungry lion pride give chase ~
kicks out and escapes

musky abdomen

                                  deer's love perfume doe eyes closed

                                               lion reaches out

newborn culled from herd
pride posse surrounds quarry
springing coil of death

Lazy lion lies
Soaking in dewdrops and sunshine
Blind sheep have sweet dreams

gold wrapped royalty
prowls around in stateliness ~
jungles shake in awe

the zebra took off to his greener pastures


he's lion in grass
for his love to be tiger
the zebra took off

warrior Lion stands proud
snow tanks grip winter wasteland
frozen hearts cry peace

Morning walk
The stray dog
Thinks he's a lion

tooth of a lion
bearing a yellow floret...
harbinger of spring

an invasive plant
the curse of suburban lawns...
the dandelion
