Animals

The farm cat lies still, 
waiting patiently for mice.
Until mealtime’s pounce.

… 

Fox hunted rabbit.
Good day for fox family.
Last day for rabbit.

Young mom doe with twins
munching on the new plantings.
Not our plan, oh well.

… 

White Arabian horse.
Started off red, we were told.
Everyone changes.

Come every winter,
big splashes in the distance.
Blue whales migrating.

… 

Basking in the sun,
on a rock by the rough sea.
The young sea lion.

The cat has grown old,
decided to hunt no more.
Mission accomplished.

Geriatric dog,
now sleeps soundly all day long.
Well-deserved sweet dreams.

… 

The ancient oak tree
still hosts squirrels, birds and bugs.
Will never retire.

… 

Saddened elephants
grieve for their fallen comrades.
Mourn in remembrance.

The hawks are screeching,
the hummingbirds are humming.
And you, you’re singing.

The toad croaks a chant,
and the cat meows a prayer.
What song humans sing?
