My Human...
My human, your lap is warm and comfortable
Why do you insist on petting me?
Gazing at me would be preferable
Loving caresses will make me flee
I'll gladly share my living space
Provided that you know who's boss
Entertain me, cater me, on my time with grace
Worship and shelter me, don't make a fuss
After all, I'm the one with the cute chubby face
You are my minion, my loyal companion, my nutcase
Why do you insist on petting me?
Gazing at me would be preferable
Loving caresses will make me flee
I'll gladly share my living space
Provided that you know who's boss
Entertain me, cater me, on my time with grace
Worship and shelter me, don't make a fuss
After all, I'm the one with the cute chubby face
You are my minion, my loyal companion, my nutcase

Once a clear bright day
it happened
just beyond dawn magpies appear
a sudden cloud capsized is forming
with coaled black eyes
they sit at eyes length
upon their branches
staring
a cackling occurs
haste in their wings
sounds escape
into thickness
blankness
of my coffee
I seek
insights
then breaks a rolling
roaming wave
aching bird sounds
screaming cries
a huge conifer is being cut down
where once a refugee began
stammering shuddering
finally
fallen...

From my story book of words
They are called clan of Nor and wear the history of peninsula of fjords upon their skin. Fiercely build and slightly bigger, chalky ashen is their furry mantle in which many a secret is kept.
Each time I touch the main leading Wolfs fur I am filled with pine needle dreams. Forests dance in their eyes. Many a myth they tell me. They came from the Old World, far, long ago. Before existence of any written history. Before mankind called them Wolf.
Varg Evening Wolf is the main leader. He tells me stories. His heart is so kind it weighs but a feather and deepens like midnight...

Rest In Peace, Hazel V
One year ago tonight, I had to watch as your life came to an end.
It was sad to witness your demise and I felt so much pain within.
You died in 2023 on the 9th of December.
You'll be a dog who I'll always remember.
When I saw you die, it was sad to know that you would have no tomorrow.
Each and every person who has lost a dog can understand my sorrow.
Last year, you didn't live long enough to see Christmas arrive.
Rest In Peace, Hazel, I certainly am sorry that you didn't survive.

Salticidae
With the winter comes
cold gusts and snow
I sit at home and ponder
(before the window draft)
where the jumping spiders go
Perhaps they ride upon
the great blue-herons back
or dream a dream akin to mine
(of green beneath the folds of white)
from their silky silver flats.

for all those
when hag moon appears
quartz eyes open
from lazarus sleep
I returned to bask with Bast
within these feline manes
pearlescent
prayers
pristine pebbles
caught by
turmeric troubadours
one day
mayhap
I have become
a skyline

The Dreaded Question
The Swedish man knew me as a dog lover
though I happily took over the job of feeding the stray kitties
gathered by his country house door every evening
But yeah,
dogs.
I loved my beagle, Brandy Joy
and Swedish man's Rottweiler, Daisy
and his friends' dogs
and my friends' dogs
and strangers' dogs
and dogs on TV
and the dog I met once
who had a perfect German shepherd head
on a corgi body.
The only dog I can think of,
that I couldn't quite bring myself to love,
was a friend's...

Being Alive
And in the silence, I suddenly understood the many ways
a person can die yet still feel alive.....unknown
The birds do not need,
the sun bright taut red berries
As a case to be merry.
Do birds know there is a tomorrow?
Where hope installs a door.
The nest builder anticipates a future.
Do birds remember a yesterday?
Regret is not in the bird's fortay.
But the warmth of the sun may feel familiar.
How much of today did you really live?
With one foot on the dusty road back,
to the memories of weight.
And one foot...
a person can die yet still feel alive.....unknown
The birds do not need,
the sun bright taut red berries
As a case to be merry.
Do birds know there is a tomorrow?
Where hope installs a door.
The nest builder anticipates a future.
Do birds remember a yesterday?
Regret is not in the bird's fortay.
But the warmth of the sun may feel familiar.
How much of today did you really live?
With one foot on the dusty road back,
to the memories of weight.
And one foot...

Lambs
The lambs huddled together in the corner
I don't have a knife
I don't have tusks
We just put them on the balance one by one
They say sheep is the nicest animal
I don't believe them
For | have been chased
by monstrous lambs in my dreams
They had red eyes
Blood dripping mouth
Shiny claws that make the wolves shy
I remembered the scene from a movie:
Busty women sitting in a line
Milking tubes attached to their breasts
I don't have a knife
I don't have tusks
We just put them on the balance one by one
They say sheep is the nicest animal
I don't believe them
For | have been chased
by monstrous lambs in my dreams
They had red eyes
Blood dripping mouth
Shiny claws that make the wolves shy
I remembered the scene from a movie:
Busty women sitting in a line
Milking tubes attached to their breasts

Puppy - Part 2
When you died, you died too soon.
You died one year ago this afternoon.
A vet tried to save you with a blood transfusion but you died anyway.
You died and my heart was broken one year ago today.
I bought you in 2017 and you were only six years old when you died.
If a person ever says that I didn't love you, that person will have lied.
Some Chihuahuas are hateful but you were not.
You were one of the best things I've ever bought.
I took you to two vets but your life still came to an end.
You weren't just a dog, you were also a wonderful...

The Feeder
The bird feeder was the it place to be.
When filled with a simple yet glorious feast.
The fluttering wings of the landing birds,
brings hurting hearts a silent joy.
Acrobatic whirling & flapping,
the birds are happy and coy.
Rogue birds on the porch table
devouring stray food.
A full bird is one with nothing to brood.
Should become a human mood.
And below two cloud colored bunnies gather.
Around two squirrels enigmatic pursuit.
A hurting heart would rather,
loosen a root to the pain.
Let the natural world...

loosen a root to the pain.
