Snake on a Lake [Senryu]

the snake on the lake
swims with languid grace,
and i run without

Bamboo & Ancient Tree [Haiku]

a gnarled old tree -
set against a backdrop
of fanned bamboo

Red Leaf [Haiku]

a maple’s red leaves
shake and twist in the wind,
but hold tight… today

Atlanta Limerick

There once was a man from Atlanta
who wouldn't drink Coke, Sprite, or Fanta.
They called him crackpot,
fired him on the spot,
and he was put on the naughty list by Santa.
