Crab Scramble [Haiku]

a crab scrambles.
 below: rocks and 
  roiling water

Black Sand Beach [Haiku]

the black sand beach
 is no less pristine, but 
  the mind feels it is.

Tail Whip Splash [Haiku]

silence
 in the koi pond; then:
  a tail whip splash

Willows [Haiku]

slender, sinuous
 tongues of willow leaf
  droop at river's edge.

Lapping Waves [Free Verse]

Gentle waves lap ashore,
 circling into each other,
  one riding over the other.

The lower sweep becomes
 another shore for the higher.

Which side wins out changes
 from one wave to the next.

Hawks in Flight [Haiku]

three hawks fly,
 but look like one hawk
  in three time slices

Crab Gravity [Haiku]

a crab on a rock -
 another above, who's to say
  who's upside-down?
