No bird ever seemed quite so regal
As a quietly perching eagle.
But it's not so much like a king
When it dismounts, to take wing --
Cause that bird has to work for its living.

River Taco [Lyric Poem]
We kayak where lives Hippopotamus,
And hope it isn't submerged, a-bottom us.
With kayak a quite crunchy hard shell --
Us: savory filling that screams and yells, --
We'll be a three-bite river taco to hell.

Chiaroscuro Clouds [Haiku]
at days end,
clouds not burning bright white
sink into black.

Wind Snitch [Free Verse]
The straight-stemmed turbines
are tattletales,
telling all about the stealthy
thief sneaking overhead.
With no clouds in the sky,
the wind could slip
out over the treetops,
and no one would know.
But the turbines turn,
slow as Taiji titans,
letting no movement
go untaxed.

Last Blossom [Haiku]
bloom-laden Cherry
tree attracts no viewers;
the last blossom does.

Smoke Rise [Haiku]
white smoke rises downriver:
backdropped by black mountains.
