Bear in a tree
Nowhere to go
but down

Boughs that bend
A bear ascends
the young poplar tree

Travelers wait
A bear on the road
leaving town

Seaside
getaway – Empty
lifeguard stand

Fish bites
the bait
Again

Falcon descends
talons tilted
Movement below

Water flows
under the bridge
The fisherman waits

Sweat flows
under my shirt
The policeman waits

Ants flow
over the lawn
My ham sandwich waits

Humming
song –
Bird!

Chair
on a dock
The sea

A moose chews
wildflowers, antlers wide
in the sun

Rabbit hangs
from the labrador’s mouth
The children scatter

Sparrows dip and shake
evaporating
droplets
