Local Lake

Daily walk around the lake,

Mindset changed instantly.

Worry free ducks floating,

Soft birds’ chirping;

Haiku and Tanka – double entendre avec musique

Humoresque
fowl improvisations
on an evening walk

Pond(ering) – Butterfly Cinquain

 

a pond ..
coot a’swimmin
swift as a torpedo
(wonderin’ what he finally found)
two ducks
(quacking, awakened in surprise)
start off a’swimmin too
a dragon-fly
.. flies off

Love in Ten Lines – free verse – March 28, 2015

Love in Ten Lines

spring is for love
like love among ducks

love is an illusion
love is hormonal floods

love and romance mix
to create love’s fruit

and love is caring
for sweet love’s child

love is a bane
when love is over

Feeding the ducks

 

The pond by the cottage was frozen this morning
And the ducks had nowhere to go
We found them down in the sunshine
Where the oak tree and daffodils grow
