Hearing

nursing her fawn
the doe’s ears detect
the rustling of mice

Wonders

fox cubs astounded
lightning rips the sky
wonders every day

Drifting

silent deer glide
among the willows at the marsh
layers of fog drifting

watch traffic roar by
neighborhood brawl

Fly By Night

wings over the pasture
moonlight in the hunter’s eyes
the grasses tremble.

Vanquished

poor old tomcat
vanquished by one younger
slinks home, his ear torn

Survivors

where bison roamed free
masters of these rolling hills
spring crocus still blooms

field mice scurry over
a hill of harvested grain
abundant blessings
