Daver Austin Poet Haiku

Restless March

RESTLESS MARCH

the whispering breeze
cats at the open window
a strange restlessness 

just one patch of snow
sun glancing off the roof tops
sense the world turning

just one patch of snow
and not a cloud in the sky
a restless sniffing

rabbit on the run
eagle at one thousand feet
strange restless chatter

oh such excitement
not wild    just restless twitching
cats    open window

cats    open window
exciting restless silence
be still    aware now

Michelle Mac Donald June 18, 2012 at 3:49 PM Very clever haikus, Daver! That's one form I'm not good at.:( However you've got it down pat! Now about that fever, you are drinking lots of fluids, yes? You might have to see your doctor in case it's a bug you've picked up. Was wondering why I hadn't heard from you, thought you were exhausted from your visitors. Chicken soup can do you no harm. Oh, I'll worry about my guru friend.:( Keep well, Daver! Love, Mikki

Joe Maverick March 14, 2012 at 1:01 AM I think you have done well in drawing attention in this write Daver,, and i had the sense of "aware while reading"
