bright glow of the moon
call of the wild on the wind
beckons wolf within

By Pen

winds howl across sky
leaves skitter across pavement
summer death rattle

This is a form of haiku known as a "zip"

By Pen

red-tailed hawk circles in azure sky
spots dead carcass a feast

mane whipping in wind
majestic head high and proud
equine heritage

white rabbit scrounging
leaves no footprints in the snow
shadow of itself

limbs twisted
intricate patterns
bonsai tree

one step at a time
miles ahead and miles behind
a sheer act of will

eve of destruction
one last reality check
we did this ourselves

candle flame flickers
reflects off plate on table
a promise broken

cat eyes sharp and pierce
pounces fast
quick mouse gets away
