A PIOUS PACHYDERMIC POSE
             (A Haiku Duo)

Big head, knees, and legs;
A huge body, kneeling, as if
In genuflection:-

Long ivory-bound trunk,
Graciously bent down, as if
In pious prayer:-


Premium MemberSee its Tail Wag

  Even after a day of fun
    Sunday night can be a drag

  I’d like to see its tail wag

   all bubbly, perky, eager
   like a woodland beaver

Premium MemberA Toddler and Her Friends

She,
magnet;
attracting
half a dozen
of quacking, waddling ducks like scrap metal
A toddler is casting her magic spell
with mere bread crumbs;
a wondrous
sight to
see!

Premium MemberAn Amphibian Moment

Being the infant
that you were,
there you sat;
hunched knees
and settle butt looking
with piercing eyes
reflecting stand-off thoughts
as you huffed and puffed.

Like a water pump
pumping out,
your lungs pumped in
balancing the nature of life.
In your emerald grey
and black polka-dotted sheen
your thinking eyes
momentarily pondered 
my raised foot;
you flashed a broad smile
and suddenly hopped away...
leaving me innocent
of a crime of ignorance
of nature:
Later in the night
your croaking echoes flowed
into the empty vase of my ears.

Premium MemberA Virginia Spring Morning

As the quiet dew
wet blades of grass grew,
hungry rays of sunlight
slowly consumed 
the last morsels of darkness

Faint echoes of the symphony 
of frogs and crickets
waned in the distance

The staccato overture
of chirping red-breasted cardinals
announced the arrival 
of the synchronized dawn

Leaves of ancient trees attested 
nature’s physical rainbow 
quantum leaping her celestial spectrum
to supreme expressions of exploding colors
canvassing the terrestrial plane:

True to symbiotic rhythms, all creation
coalesced into a Virginia spring morning.


Premium MemberPain of Loss

In hibernation, like a polar bear
After the searing pain dulls
Bearable, day by day

Premium MemberThe Hummingbird

Oh, it floats, like hope!
Tasting the flower's nectar
Small thing of wonder
Hovers carefree like a cloud
Wings flickering dazzlingly

Premium MemberNarwhal

Pods of narwhals navigate Arctic seas, while other whales are locked out; without keys. Swimming along fractures takes expertise, thick ice packs are nothing more than a tease. Naturally nimble, they glide and squeeze between invisible currents with ease. They seem to fly as if on a trapeze, harnessing waves like birds riding a breeze. Though floating together like fallen leaves, they have never seen a forest of trees. And whenever the ice buckles and heaves, they slip through the cracks where water doesn't freeze. And awed by their tusks, I drop to my knees, I've never seen creatures stranger than these. (Monorhyme Sonnet) 2/11/2017
