Elk
slowly walk
grazing off open paths
a distant bugling call
Hunter
hunkered down, still
open sight

Snuggled and hunkered down in winter clothes
Nestled warm in a winter wonderland
Only parts in sight are their eyes and nose
Wee ones out to play who can barely stand
Tom Turkey's doom again was kept at bay
He wasn't picked for Thanksgiving entree
Hunkered down to keep his head
His pals were victims instead
Tom survived to live for another day
The wind whipped
The bent tree
The tea sipped
The cut knee
The suffering reasoned
The brave hunkered down
The meat was seasoned
The stranded wore a frown
The water rose
The stranded were fearful
Citizens sowed
The wind whipped
The bent tree
The tea sipped
The cut knee
The suffering reasoned
The brave hunkered down
The meat was seasoned
The stranded wore a frown
The water rose
The stranded were fearful
Citizens sowed
The storm
The wind whipped
The bent tree
The tea sipped
The cut knee
The suffering reasoned
The brave hunkered down
The meat was seasoned
The stranded wore a frown
The water rose
The stranded were fearful
Citizens sowed
Reverie
smooth
sometimes I wonder
is this a living world?
no movement
no horizon
January
out on the bay
dog team hunkered down
like fur drifts
they sleep warm
as I,
laying back on the sled,
contemplate
the glare of
nothingness.
Can charity be only a few coins tossed
in the street? It is another day,
and we are all just as meek and poor
as the last. Did God hunkered down
in the wet hollow of the soon to be earth
think, They will love me for this, one at least
will love me for this?
Skies are dark and foreboding
Winter storm rolls in tonight
Commuters don't need any goading
Hustle home before moonlight...
Now folks are back from the stores
Hunkered down with their lovers
All comfy and cozy inside of doors
Tucked in tight 'neath snow's cover
Dear Covid-19 vaccine
I am glad your on the scene
I hope you gobble up that bug
and kill that nasty thug
That kept us hunkered down
With a worried look and a frown
But with two shots in the arm
Your working like a charm
And now as we move about from place to place
we now are seeing a more smiling face
My body is insulated. Covered in foil and wrapped in plastic,
shielded from threat. From posing possibilities of change.
Foam padded walls keep cold hunkered down, warmth at bay.
Safety nets kept taut. My highwire trapeze is checked away from spotlight.
My body is quiet, my body is calm, my body is simple. My body has a little life
far from the hustle and noise of experience. My body is insulated, safe. Alone.
Visibility's dropped to near-zero
Thermometer's plummeting too
Ocean tempest tossing and turning
Spraying the nerves of the crew
Deck swabbed by torrential rain
Passengers hunkered down below
Afternoon's slipped into deep shadows
Danger's pulse glowers and grows...
Back on shore, weather's sunny
Gentle breezes, calm and warm
Ignorance is sheerest bliss
When it comes to cruel ocean storms
The storm came as predicted;
It wasn’t a surprise.
We’d canceled plans as every
Weather forecast did advise.
With lots to keep us busy,
We hunkered down indoors
And even did some online shopping.
(Easier than stores!)
The snow’s still blowing sideways;
The roads have hidden ice
But in our cozy haven
It feels comfortable and nice.
Tomorrow we must travel;
I hope the storm abates.
We’ll wait until the morning
To see what trial awaits.
Celluloid escape magic
to another reel life
perhaps with Sundance and Butch
or was it Mister Tibbs?
Hunkered down in the cool
darkness of an afternoon,
hands all buttery,
rocked within a theatre's cocoon
while learning the meaning of a Classic
or song and dance man,
the terrors of imagination,
mysteries of sea and sky.
Not a mirror of my life
but a myriad of human emotions
evoked by this still affordable luxury
that remains a great escape.
Hunkered Down
Written: by Miracle man

We currently are facing an uncertain future,
nothing like my eighty-one years has seen yet.
Wounds beyond closing with staple or suture,
providing the world reasons, for many to fret.
Let our faith assures us that “this too shall pass”
and until that happens we must all hunker down.
individually it seems worse for the aging class,
prayer won’t cause glower but reduces your frown.
life interrupted by corona
we live in a strange world
life interrupted by corona
the virus spread throughout the world
disrupting everything
putting life on hold
as more people
hunkered down
waiting for the virus
to pass over us
like in biblical times
the virus
will test us all
life interrupted
on hold
until the virus
spreads through the world
and then
we will all
go back
to life interrupted

Listen to poem:
The eastern gale swept o'er the bay tonight,
As rising seas climbed up the sandy beach,
It pushed and forced its way beyond the bight,
And those who tried to stay, they did beseech,
They boarded in and hunkered down so tight,
Those need of care got aid if in their reach,
The stormy night gave way to calm daylight
Some minor damage said in Mayor's speech,
No deaths had been reported, shed some light,
A wiser lesson learned that storm did teach.

Three little kittens who lost their mittens were mewing with a sigh
Don’t worry, kittens, said Mr. Smittens, Santa is on his way by.
Santa hung up some cozy warm stockings and put the kitties inside.
They loved their new home, it was a great place to hide.
During a snow storm and a mountain land slide,
They stayed in their mittens, and none of them cried.
Let’s hibernate, suggested a smart kitten named Clyde.
Great idea! Said his sisters, and they hunkered down inside.
