Wind whispers
Of hidden things
Buried in the sand

rumors of peace
what I learned
from the dune grass

When seas turn angry, sand dunes
have always brokered peace

Wind whispers
Of hidden things
Buried in the sand

Our footprints on beach sand
only touch the Milky Way

tranquil sunrise walk
a lone angler casts seaward
sanderlings take flight

Peregine watching
The cycle's apex

we agree
to disagree

Crows on the flying
Argue unrelenting

red-shouldered hawk
a cold and lonely vigil

I fiddled with your verses this morning, and added some of my own. I’m sure I broke some rules.

Meta-communication on this:

I’m aware that this is a hybrid of collaboration and appropriation. You tooted your verses in a thread, somewhat collaboratively, not knowing that they might be appropriated for something out of your control. Guilty.

I’m also aware that grey squirrels making love might not be apical Japanese poetry, & I actually had a different line composed, but then…

A pair of Grey squirrels made love in my tree as I fiddled with these verses. So I included them.

Grey squirrels, tree, a river, otters, Red-shouldered Hawks screeching—everything one might expect in my back yard this time of year.

And so it goes. (2/2)
