as we walk 
pots clink against canteens –
squirrels chatter

Reading this haiku gave me a happy feeling, I think it's those squirrel chatter-- and so happy mama monkey is happy! Btw, I guess I never thanked you for that poem of mine-- one I recited and entered-- Neverland over Wonderland-- thanks for that line, that poem I consider one of my personal favorites. smoochies back to you!

Hi Deb - For one reason or another I just can't keep up with reading and writing (and probably 'rithmetic). Just thought I'd stop by. Must have heard the canteens and pots. Great haiku - perks the ears. love, Kathy

I always love your haiku, Debbie. I feel like I learn something new each time I read one. This one reminds me of portaging through the forest on a canoe trip. Wonderful :)
