Chipmunk in feeder
Beats out his squirrel relatives
(Because he's light).
Late morning sunlight
Filters through the leaves once more;
(Chipmunk's back again).
Dandelion puff
Achieves total symmetry
Before it dissolves.
My good friend Mabel
Pokes her long nose through the fence
Just to say hello.
Beyond leaning fence
A dry stream bed doesn't run.
Beauty without use.
Swift and slithering
The snake has come to a stop;
(A permanent stop.)
Green and brown hanging
Together on some tree limbs--
Cycle of life/death.
Scent of fresh lilacs
Floating down on the May breeze
Precedes the purple.
