Abe Lopez Poet Choka

Sounds of Seasons

Ruffling of feathers
Birds mating in the morning 
Unlocking the Spring

Cicadas singing
A midsummer symphony
Honoring the sun

Geese in formation
The squawking "V" heading south
Leading arctic fronts

Hibernating bear
Sleeps to sounds of December
Locking down Winter

Judy Riley April 19, 2009 at 9:57 PM I will look up "Choka", I am still learing alot of the types of poetry, This is a nice combination of Haikus that paint a wonderful image of Spring, and animals sleeping. Good work. Judy Riley
