There’s a writhing pile of pigeons —
Not two or a few or a smidgen —
You can raise their clout, and call them doves,
But I’m glad they're not on the wires above.

folds up its wings, resigned

Rocky Outcrop [Tanka]
the rocky tip
of grass-coiffed outcrop
is all I see,
but the sound of a crow's "CAW!"
comes through loud & clear.

a heron stands tall
at the branch’s end,
as if weightless.

Raptor Rides [Haiku]
raptor rides updrafts:
head & eye swivel-pivot;
all else, glides.
