3 Spring Haiku
Pill bugs wet with dew
as crawling gray domes mirror
green turf, salmon sun.
Copter seeds whirling,
a squirrel chases paper
treasure for her nest.
Young cat mock-tweeting,
wily sparrows unheeding,
paws press on the screen.

Battling against being killed
Womanlike she fights!

Salmon Run
The journey upstream,
A chance to deliver life;
Swimming to the death.

She walks out the door

distant thunderheads
vast golden plains turned cold gray~
wild horses run free
torrential rain storms
rivers overrun leveys~
bears feast on salmon
cool morning drizzle
freezing announces winter~
cocoons await spring

God Grew Salmon Fish
God grew salmon fish
Which was a delicious dish
Have some more we wish

To enhance all of my plants
Free from sin and ants
