Looky, a Blue Jay!
Lift camera, snap a pic
Squirrel photobomb.

Came back with Canon
Why no finches at feeder?

Oh, now I get it.

Crushed metal can be pretty
when everyone’s safe.

watching Loki fly on by.

Damned chickadees always move.

Changed my mind, love it.

nibbling the flower garden.
I’m happy to share.

Me and my french press
on National Coffee Day.
Warm. Caffeine. Goodness.

behold the wonder.

The DMV is
filled with long lines and long waits.
Bonus: human tricks!

I spilled water then.
Now? We’re bound as family.
Teapot dome scandal.

Tip your hat to me
sent first draft to critique group.

If you’ll just give me
everything my heart desires
the staring will cease.

Meet the invaders
dressed in shades of pretty pink.
These peas are not sweet.

Wildebeest’s tail’s gone.
He wore it with pride for years

and now wants to share.

Been a long week and
this dude’s tired is contagious.
Can’t stop looking, though.

Here are two cat butts
their feline heads gone missing.
Curiosity.

Am very sad now.
First, the story got to me
then I read update.

Siblings know the past
and can help chart the future.
Now, they offer love.

Even in cow dung
one can find grace and beauty.
Still, best to steer clear.

I know how it looks
dead bunny flung on the lawn.
Nope. He’s just chillin’.

Son went to Norway
had an equine encounter.
True hairy eyeball.

Raise your hand if you
like going to the dentist.
Yeah, didn’t think so.

Removed wall hanging
and all the clutter on top.

More room for my thoughts.

Friday Haiku

Bad hair day, dead eyes
some days are worse than others.
Attitude counts, yo.
