Beside oat soldiers
squads of geese, ducks and shorebirds
glean the marshy field.

Aviary gleaning
Swallows encircle
the farmer and his mower,
a whirling harvest.

Wren haiku
Warbling mother wren,
fledglings rattle from gourd house.

Flower forecasting
When the French lilacs
start to bloom in Ohio

A mess of morels
It was quite the haul.
I found the first mushroom and
my son the other.

rode a donkey, not an elephant,
into and out of his earthly life.

Wayne on Wayne
My wife and I
stayed in a bed and breakfast
in Waynesboro on Wayne St.,
and the owner’s name was Wayne.
I couldn’t, no I wouldn’t make this up.

Don’t miss the big, bright
Supermoon tonight at dusk
rising in the east.

Pi Day 2011
Tonight, just above the horizon
in the western sky
less than an hour after sunset,
planets Jupiter and Mercury
are only a piece of pie apart.
