Dog Dreams

She lies sleeping at my feet
eyes closed, outstretched legs 
twitching, mouthing small yips
and I wonder what she is chasing 
and if she ever catches it

Excited Happy Coyote Yips

Excited happy coyote yips! Howling.
Yips come faster now.
They have something cornered.
Rabbit? Turkey? Chicken? Cat?
A yipping frenzy. 
Dinner begins shrieking

Breathless

Caught in lust's whirlpool -
pretzel entwined limbs
edge me into your
carnal cavity
whilst you taste thine's flesh.

Nail-induced scars
tattoo my back
as wanton yips
pervade night air.

Erotic
stimuli
mingle and

sculpt our
torso's

whole!

Youthful Yellow Yips Yelling Yahoos

Seriously serious she sternly spoke.
Tyrannical truth that tells terrible tales.
United underdogs urging unity.
Vicious violators vetoing votes.
Warning willing workers who wanted warships.
‘xtra ‘xecutions ‘xacted ‘xactly.
Yet youthful yellow yips yelling yahoos
Zealously zapping zesty zealots

Coyote In My Yard Today

Coyote in my yard today 
Looked small and scroungy from a distance
The closer she got the bigger she looked
I thought of all the nights I have walked around out there
Listening to coyote yips as they surround their prey
With no idea how large they are
I watch her paw the earth
Feeling vulnerable

Heart Stopping Scream

Heart stopping scream.
Permeates the woods.
A woman being murdered.

I grab my flashlight.
I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
I glare at my friend.

A woman is being killed.
I am going to save her.
That was a bobcat, she says.

I come right back to the deck.
There are no more screams
But yips of coyotes.

You Augmenting Me

You are augmenting me,

Your beauty is augmenting my eyes
An eyes without the vessels of lies.

Your love is augmenting my heart
A heart without the cracks of depart.

Your kiss is augmenting my lips
A lips without the streams of yips.

Your hug is augmenting my feelings
A feeling's words are romancing.

I'm loving you so much!!.

Night Sounds

In the dark silence of the velvet night
I hear him sing
He stands on the back hills
Where his sharp barks cut
Across the ridges in the moonlight
Come my brothers and sisters
Come
The hunt, the kill is done
Join me at this bloody ground
I hear their excited song as
They gather round and join in
Their sharp yips
I hear them sing
I hear them declare
Him their king

This Storm of Paws

this storm of paws
on gangled limbs,
lead questing noses
above counter rims,

a whine, a bark
or playful yips,
those rough house days
of tumbled flips,

a world so new
so wonder wide,
eager running leaps
to nature's call abide,

now at dusk these settled storms
slept as dark falls like the dew,
a twitch, a snore, a growling dream
anxious yet for morning new.

Summer Sounds

The rooster crows about being the best in the yard.
Bob White shouts his name to the neighbors.
Barks and Yips, Howls and Meows,
Splishes and Splashes and Screams of delight
As the ice cream truck sings its song.
Fireflies flash warning lights as
The bats come swooping in.
And someone is Whipping Poor Will again.

A Frolic For Children and Puppies

Rolling bodies, 
Grass stained jeans
And shouts, yips, and nips
Punctuate the air
As the child and puppy
Roll in the grass of the yard.
Squirt gun fights,
An unintentional bath,
Painted with frivolity
and water as the
Sound of laughter
And playful taunts,
Fill the air around 
The children who chase
And play oblivious
To the invisible moat
That repels the perils
Outside the yard.

Coyote Night

Coyote Nights

the night is dark there is no moon
no light and the stars lie quiet
its at two in the morning there are
the yips and barks that quick 
high pitch yipping as my heart beats
heavy in the night for something has died 
and becomes a meal as
mother earth demands in her cycles
the coyotes have claimed their prize
a creature has been caught  
in this cold natural rhythm of life
in the blackness of the night,

Crazy Animal Poem

Belligerent bulldog blows up balloons, bulbous and blue.
Frantic frenzied flamingo flips for a flute and a flu.
Persnickety porcupine prances perilous with pooh,
Concerned calico cat coaxes a cardinal’s carnival coo.
Daredevil dolphin diligently designs dalmatian dog’s hairdo.
Serendipitous skunk sashays toward sticky sweet stew.
Lavishly laborious lion lunges into little linguistic loo.
Youngish yak yells and yips at yellow bellied you.

Coyote

In the pre-dawn hush
brief staccato yips
at the threshold of 
my middle aged hearing.
Downstairs the dog sleeps,
until she hears them
then goes crazy
their calls unleashing
fragments of her feral past
and the shivers on my back
tell me she is not alone.

My neighbors raise sheep.
Last year they lost
 six lambs in one night
despite fences, dogs 
and a miniature donkey.

Yet stuck in traffic
approaching the city
I smile knowing
they are there.

Echo In the Hollow

Cypress haven
Out echoes of the hollow
Creatures of the night
Hoot of Great Horned Owl

Cheeps and chirps shadowed
Seem to follow
Maybe, saw grass yips
Puppies upon the prowl

Sunken moss covered fallen
Echoes reaching further out of hollow
Black cubs fuzzy
First words loud into growl

Or whiny songs
Crying baby swallow
Bullfrog warts
Balloon chin bellows

Maestro amidst the moonlight
Conducting within the wallow
Woodland tenant choirs
As Mother Nature echoes through the hollow
