Haiku and photo: “Know-where”

Know-where

Nowhere, you know me /

Alone in your majesty. /

Find you and you me.

Photo finish Friday: “Sun flower”

Sun flower

Our star was green once: /

gas and strange forms — blooming now /

with light and life.

Haiku and photo: “Pepper post”

Pepper post

Ripened in the sun /

Hot pepper resting and red /

Summer spiciness.

Haiku and photo: “Back down”

Back down

Back down to the floor. /

Heart upward toward the ceiling. /

Belly scratch ready.

Haiku and photo: “Bee at peace”

Bee at peace

Rest in my window. /

Recumbent under glass. /

Cryptic bee at peace.

Haiku and photo: “Donut Do not”

Donut Do not

Raccoon’s arrival. /

Donut know he’s being watched. /

Sweet Spring on a string.

Photo finish Friday: “Hip-oh”

I don’t know who is showing the most hip, but I can guess who is being the most cheeky in this photo.

Is this a drunken, African version of the Running of the Bulls? The Hightailing Away from the Hippopotamus? Or would that be Hippopotami?

Oh my

the hippopotami

have come to try

and drive me away.

I undressed

to my birthday best

to take my rest

on a hot day.

I did not know

it was no place to go

that I could not show

my full display.

I have caused unrest

put nature to the test

because I undressed

and tried to stay.

One big old brute

did not like my birthday suit

so I gave him the salute

and he huffed my way.

With no pants

I had little chance

to make a stance

or have my say.

I now must leave

but please don’t grieve

and don’t yet believe

I am human filet.
