Turtle exits its hiding place
beneath a rotten log.
Its shell snags on that old, dead wood
he drags the log along.
Does he know that he's double-shelled?
He seems so unaware.
When he breaks free, he gains no speed --
just crawls on like he don't care.

Crocodile Wu Wei [Lyric Poem]
Sunning on the shore,
As in days of yore
When the ancient beast
Stood its ground to feast,
Waiting for one to crawl
Near its gaping maw...
Then, SNAP!
CRUNCH! - Crunch - crunch...

Snake [Lyric Poem]
I saw a snake had made a gnarly bed --
On logs and stones, its length did curl and thread.
Ah, to be comfy on bark's ragged bumps...
I wake up when PJ's wad to a lump.

Lizard [Lyric Poem]
Ah! What a life, to be a lizard:
Unacquainted with ice or blizzard,
Knowing only warmth and beaches...
All but for sand in one's nether reaches.

rock agama pops
over the boulder's top:
sniffs & scurries.

Frogs Heard, Not Seen [Haiku]
grass-rattle, plop!
grass-rattle, plop! -- repeats...
at last, I see a frog.
