A day at the Zoo

...I called to the monkey who wore a pinstriped suit,
Found out the giraffe and hippo are mute.
Saw a man stare at a lemur 'til dark,
Like he was waiting for some kind of spark.

The leaves fell fr...

The Wind Chortled

Just passing through
Teasing the ripples to white tips
Swaying trees twerked in her gusts
Hawks shrieked on a roller coaster down draft
Sunning turtles watched the duck down fl...

On the Verge

...pastel spring's coming
ushered in by fresh fragrance
lemon blooms sunning

posh pink flowers peep
pearl snowdrops left with the clouds
blue roses still sleep

buttercups, lilacs

Melancholy

...
                Apricity 
          golden, burnished 
     smiling, sunning, tanning
  Sauna, Humidity, Fever, Mirage
fleeting, dissipating, darkening 
          frozen, shadowy 
           ...

A Tiger’s Way

...The tiger lays on the cliff
Sunning his paws
He slowly yawns
Cleans his claws

King of his valley
Leader of his pack

His power unmatched

Waiting patiently for his prey

in southern seas
has sunning seals dream warm.

Iceberg lids
on ocean pots

Mt Blanca

...trademark green on white 
"Welcome to Colorful Colorado" 
me and the Sangre De Cristos
march across the border 
and Mt Blanca rises to greet us
smooth and elegant 
as a wedding cake
draped wit...

Seal Immovable

...More graceful in full blubber

a seal slides down banisters 
of ocean spirals
in ice-cold currents.

Smiling like a cat,
slipping into water,
swimming down and up,

In Search of a Great White Butt Ox

...We embarked on an adventure
That was quite quixotic
A scientific dream quencher
Searching for exotics

We started where we thought made sense
Out on the sunning docks
Where perhaps there’d be ...

Would You Love Me If I Weren't a Poet? - Spelling Edit

Your eyes glazed over.
You could have been a lizard on a rock
sunning yourself, entirely unaware
that I felt as though I were there in front of yo...

The Hum of Sunrise

...Quietly
The hum of sunrise
Awakens the day.
Cutting the familiar wake
Of an old butter knife
Un-noticed
Silent swans
Skirting the lily pads
Pass sunning turtles
Wary eyed muskrats
And bug-e...

Leave From Within the Shallow Minds

..."There is a time to leave,
As this evening is drying off,
Entering to the dark minds of others,
More to regret the morning afterwards,
As crossing by the doors I crossed,
Sunning by the river as...

The Listening

...Like children at play
I hear them babble, 
Ever skipping away
Over rocky rabble

And all ten toes
On my own two feet,
Watching as it goes
Before I retreat

These eyes alone
