Grassy Bank [Haiku]

Autumn morn sunlight
brightens the grassy bank,
& throws long shadows.

Lingerers [Haiku]

side-by-side trees:
one bloom-laden; one with
a few lingerers.

Orangutan [Lyric Poem]

Orangutans live their lives in the trees.
The jungle has as many as they please --
But - with trees - the Zoo is quite sparing,
Leaving just one twig: non-loadbearing.

Winding Tree [Haiku]

winding like vines,
tree branches grow like a cage
over my head.

Cannonball Tree [Haiku]

the cannonball tree:
blooms bright & intricate,
but never delicate.

Sneaky Trees [Senryū]

it seems trees sneak --
in ones and twos -- up the hill,
as the woods watch.

Vista Tree [Haiku]

a tree looms
over the valley;
beloved of hawks.
