Rennie's Outlaw, Part II.
Rennie Hauser gazed out of the window
as the stage slowly trundled down the road,
the sun beat hard on the towering peaks
that ran across northern Colorado.

My joy leaps like the springbok
at the thought of coming home

Fresh or full-blown or nosegay or fresh posy role;
Flowers blossom in saucy slimy silkiness,
Seek them to be the same, is senile silliness.

A Walk To the RiverA scarlet tanager sits primly on the rail
Of the new fence erected near the meadow,
He eyes me stroll as I take in every detail
The path to the woodland is rather narrow,
Infrequently used, it is rapidly...

A Foolish Trek To the MeadowThe meadow has come alive with sight and sound
As I go through the gate, I hear buzzing all around,
The bees are busy working on milkweed flower
Waist-high daylilies and coral honeysuckles tower,
Enticing a few hummingbirds into...

The OrphanEntertained by flickers on a screen, cosseted between giants. Suited with slicked-back raven hair, snow-white starched shirt, an innocent tie.
Mother smiles at his sky-blue eyes. Father pats his shoulder, “Good show!”
The nightingale, high in spirits....

Summer Nights In the SouthSummer Nights in the South
Green fireflies blink in the quiet of night
and our sleeping old dog heaves a sigh.
Dreaming, she sprints through a youthful blue sky
chasing delicate clouds, cotton-white.

from...

Bright-Green LeavesInside the forest's sea-of-green,
Sits a hungry, bright-scarlet tanager.
Eating one caterpillar after another,
In minutes he gulps down thirty-five.

And over there in a huge...

Watch the sparkling waterfalls, trees, stars, and sky.
What is more dazzling than a natural wonder display?
