Spring rain:
a walk amid
wet willows.

“Daniel Boone” by Stephen Vincent Benét [w/ Audio]

When Daniel Boone goes by, at night,
The phantom deer arise
And all is lost, wild America
Is burning in their eyes.

Hawkweed [Haiku]

Hawkweed blooms
beside a creek that sparkles
with summer sunlight.

Trampled [Haiku]

beside the trail:
a trampled dandelion
springs back, slowly.

Early Spring [Haiku]

lake shimmer;
Spring sneaks in early --
trees still bare.

Spring [Haiku]

Spring greenery
catches sunlight;
tiny birds chitter.
