Swaying in the breeze
The trees are speaking to me
-
-
This morning
a songbird sang
-
It was a cloudy day
I saw the shape of V,
-
-
Under the tree
the Baltimore oriole
-
Besides love men need fishing
And for both, most are wishing
-
-
A mourning dove
sits on the maple tree
-
Black chapeau upon my crown
I don't migrate, I stick around
-
-
contest haiku with emoticons
-
Well my little friend
Where have you been this week
-
I strut my stuff in LIVING COLOR,
the rest appear quite dull and duller.
-
Hello, my little feathered friend
How are you today
-
This spring morning
the sun shines brightly
-
Hello there little birdie
Nice to see you again
-
orange bill and pink legs
two black bellied whistling ducks
-
In the far North
When October spills
-
Quixotically, this is an odd wading bird.
Aquatically it dines on apple snails.
-
People who share a common direction
and sense of community can get where
-
A hundred eyes keep vigil
with overweening pride,
-
-
-
whisk of grey, not even breath enough
for slash of red or shimmer-green —
-
Now you see him,
now he’s gone!
-
elegant shiny feathers
cornfield surfing
-
One of nature’s “sleep arounds”, he’s polygamous.
Come into his territory and he will make a fuss
-
The enriching sent of lilac and rosemary
Blows with the chilled wind
-
Standing on a fence post with its long-tailed stature
is Oklahoma’s state bird, the Scissor Tailed Flycatcher.
