Haiku-a-day
A young deer feeding in the early morning light in a heavily treed graveyard in October.

Sunrise up through fog,
deer feeding at the graveyard,
tall trees frame his house.

A deer walks through grasslands covered in frost with the sun rising behind it.

In another life
I’m a deer leading a deer
through the morning frost.

Haiku-a-day
A young deer swimming across a small creek to his waiting family.

He crosses the creek,
his sibling runs to sniff him,
his parent stomps hooves.

A buck with large antlers looks startled at the edge of a creek on a foggy fall morning.

In the morning fog
we surprised each other, he
with heavy antlers.

A mother deer and her fawn walk along a path next to a creek on a sunny morning.

The fawn follows fast,
his mother, along the creek,
their reflections, too.

The soft crunch and pull
of still-green creekbank leaves
in the young deer’s mouth.

Two deer at the edge of a creek at the base of a old willow tree on a cloudy September morning.

Symbolic to me —
but just deer living their lives,
seasons changing fast.

Two deer at the edge of a creek at sunrise on a foggy September sunrise.

The world says, “don't wait,”
sun rising over two deer,
alert at the creek.

A mother deer and her fawn standing by a creek in morning.

Eye to eye, creekside,
the fawn with butterfly spots,
burrs on her soft legs.

A view of dried wildflower stalks in snow with late-day blue shadows and a deer hoof print.

You were the center,
leading the way every walk,
through sun and shadows.

A deer climbs to shore after swimming across a river in early November.

The sun nearly set,
he swam across the river —
calmly, quietly.

A white-tailed deer laying in a patch of sun in the woods.

Asleep in the woods,
she wakes to find us looking
at her silent face.

A white-tailed deer stands eating thistle leaves with goldenrod in bloom behind it in late summer.

We hear her crunching
in a patch of tall thistle
as we walk out our grief.

A young deer stands at the edge of a forest foraging on a summer evening.

All body and bow,
curved and lithe and calm in the
green understory.

A deer walks in a field in early springtime.

Color of the field,
knowing spring fills it all in —
the deer walks through it.

Two deer stand camoflauged in a bare thicket by a river in winter.

The light starts to fade,
golden across the river —
deer stand still, hidden.

The track of a deer in ice.

On the darkest night,
huddled in the cold thicket,
my tracks left in ice.

A young deer with her neck down eating in fall.

Young deer listening —
ears alert, crunching acorns,
cold coming on quick.

A deer with antlers in November on a forested riverbank.

Antlers kept above,
he swam across the river
and disappeared fast.
