Death of a Rodent
Poor little thing.
Curled up in a corner,
of an old metal box,
no way to get out,
oh, what a shame.
Bones and dead bugs,
are all that remain,
of an innocent little creature,
yet no one's to blame.
Captured in an image,
its death has been saved,
curled up in a corner,
forever there to remain.
Oh, poor little thing.

Shadow in the Night
I watched him as he hopped away,
stopping and staring before taking off again,
leaping across the crystal white snow,
then stopping at the forest's edge,
waiting and watching,
for his friends to appear,
before leaping off out of sight,
melting into the dark shadows of the night.

The Last Donut
One donut is in the box,
that is all that there is left.
A group of people in the house,
what will they do next?
Will one person try to eat it,
or share it with the others?
The donut has disappeared,
and the dog is gone, they have discovered.

The So-Called Pet
He sits and waits so patiently,
like no other half wild animal would do.
Waiting for the time,
when I will bring him food.
He takes it in quite eagerly,
as if he's on the run.
No loving pats from me,
I'm not his favorite one.

Offering to a Raven
We throw the dead mice
out the back door,
that were caught in a trap
the night before.
A raven flies by
and snatches them up,
an offering to him
we're so glad he cleans up.
A delicious little morsel
that keeps him satisfied,
so many more to come
we’re all too happy to provide.

Puppy
You were a Chihuahua and you were my pet.
You died even though I took you to two vets.
Two days from now will be my 52nd birthday.
But it will be ruined because you passed away.
When your life ended, it was a damn shame.
You were awesome and Puppy was your name.
I bought you and owned you for six wonderful years.
Your death has and will continue to produce tears.
Your death is something that I certainly regret.

Gardebellum
Fat hares sit on thrones
deep in burrows, holding court.
Snakes and foxes plot.
Invasive species
march, drinking the sprinklers dry
on the offensive.
A rabbit rampage.
Carrot shrapnel scattered like
coleslaw confetti.
Crowns and cottontails
litter an empty kingdom—
subterranean.
Above, no bounty
awaits; forsaken baskets
set aside, fruitless.

Skechers for Scorpions
Yesterday, I almost stepped on a scorpion.
In sandals.
I wore the sandals,
not the scorpion
But perhaps I wasn't alone.
For had I stopped to observe very, very carefully,
there is the slightest possibility
that I might have seen
eight tiny stylish summer shoes.

Moo
No boundaries
Vaguely distracted
Wandering
like a lost cow
nearing a cliff

Pop Goes The Weasel!
I have many, many, questions
One of which is
Who was the first person
To decide to put
A ferret down there trousers?
And even more puzzling
How did this
Become a 'thing'?
"Is that a ferret down your trousers?"
Or are you just
Really pleased to see me?"
Lucky it was a ferret
As apparently
Weasels go pop!

Sitka Bear Orphan
Sitka Bear Orphan
Wildflower orphan of Valhalla
Sits like Buddha by window
Remembering spring berries
Gathered on hillsides
Where his cub spirit
Dawned in an age of innocence
In the sunshine of his mother
Whose soul still roams in his heart
Still grateful for the fresh fruit
Served by his keepers
But he pines for a childhood long past
Into the vapors of heaven
Where his Mom is a dancing bear
Reflected in his misty eyes
Like the blossoming rainbow
On a long lost mountainside ...

But he pines for a childhood long past
Into the vapors of heaven
Where his Mom is a dancing bear
Reflected in his misty eyes
