Haiku Moment: bun-bun

wild baby bunny

nibbles grass, carrots tempting-

now pet baby bun

mama fixes cage

nana bunny-sits, cuddles;

new home for bun-bun

Haiku Moment: croaking greenery

croaking greenery

hides hungry peeper intent

on locating friends

Haiku Moment: land, hop, walk

land, pause, freeze, and look

what’s a bird to do? can’t move

winter’s sticky tape

hop, hop, hop-three jumps

and you are there, discover

snowy hidden treats

different bird tracks;

walk, waltz, snoop: toes in, toes out

winter hides the food


land, hop, walk

Haiku Moment: drafty

color splash welcomes

beacon against monotone

shelter-but drafty

Haiku Moment: frozen in thyme

crisp hoar frost descends

embroiders lacy fingers

winter’s herbsicle

Haiku Moment: breathe

dark broken by light

snow day, but no sleeping in

time to wander, breathe

Haiku Moment: poofs

leading trail of poofs

struggle to escape mealtime

Haiku Moment: the path

here or there, the path

sometimes smooth, other times rough-

love keeps us on track

Haiku Moment: tree people

daylight freezes them

and winter, but come August

tree people watch, play

Haiku Moment: face forward

flames claim the night sky

face forward, time to wake up

gold fades to day blue
