Slowly the young buck
moves across the field
keeping his eye out for trouble
as he pauses from time to time
to sample a leaf or some grass.

In An Instant
Water meets water
as rain falls on the pond
and it seems they’ve
always been together.

September Song.
Just to let us know
they’re on their way,
wild geese honk
as they pass by.

Small Hopes And Longings
Knox looks at the door
with longing as he waits for
sunrise and his walk.
I am hopeful that by then
the rain will have paused or stopped.

Good Neighbors
Not stopped by the rain,
a multispecies clean-up crew
has arrived, clearing
the porch of all bird seed.

Morning Musings
The sky begins to lighten
though we can’t yet see the sun.
Still, we know its time will come.

Fashionably Attired
Preparing for fall,
some trees are adding a touch
of gold to their green wardrobe.

Namaste
A tiny buddha statue sits
nestled among the trees,
a small bird on his lap.
All creatures are welcome here.

Unpoetic Truth
Dancing in the rain
is to be commended, but
most of us would prefer
a different option.

Prelude
Out before sunrise
before most creatures awake,
Knox and I take our
first walk – a quiet start to
an otherwise noisy day.
