Greedy beaks rattle,
expectant of bread crust treats.
A duck brawl ensues.
Don’t these humans know the rule,
to bring food for the natives?

In woodland’s dank shade
Summer slides into Autumn
Fungi hosts leaf-drop

Monday Morning #Haiku 170 & 171 — Squirrel
Ahead of herself,
grey squirrel in white apron
gathers winter food.
Scatterbrain squirrel
abandons cooked chicken egg
next to her dugout.

#Tanka 34 — In Memoriam
Words in a tangle,
the rose so perfect now gone;
she, whom we cherished.
Her petals drift heavenward
into the hands of angels.

Monday Morning #Haiku 169 — Cake
Smell that fresh-baked cake;
inhale deep. Knife sinks slow,
jam oozes, crumbs tease.
