For this week’s photo challenge, we were asked to share a picture of our neighborhood and I posted a view of the snowstorm through my front portico. If you imagine looking just to the right of that portico, you might see this on a warm summer day. This young buck likes to hang out there cooling himself and enjoying the shade. So here’s your haiku challenge: either write a haiku about our Mule deer friend or about what you might see outside your front door!
Young Buck
Smiling for a pic
young buck sleeps in the cool shade
Is that a problem?
Citrus trees abound
Banana trees and mountains
Blue sky, what a sight
Sounds beautiful there
Tropical Paradise in
South America
unkempt yellow grass
red bicycle abandoned
wheelbarrow left berift
Love the images!
Winter’s landscape awaiting
Springs thaw and new life.
Beautiful deer!
Thanks, Pat! So nice to see you here. I’ve missed you!
Dangerous
Covered with ticks
Go away
Lyme disease here too
Cute Bambi does carry ticks
but I like his smile…
For once there’s no snow
In its place is bright sunshine
Going for walk soon
Harbinger of spring
Sunshine brings warmth and bright light
Enjoy your walk, Doc!
Enjoy it I did
But I won’t get too hopeful
March cold will return
Love your neighborhood, Cathy!
Thanks, Mary. Me too!
Lifeboats of ice
Hugging the shores of Lake Mich
Melting away
Lake iceberg’s spring thaw
brings Views of lake Michigan.
Soon sailboats not ice
Young buck posing for picture
Seems to want a treat
But unsure if it is right
Volted fence out back
Keeps him from my veggie patch
Must settle for shade
What a amazing photo, it is almost as though he posed for you.
First glimpses of Spring
Flowering trees and ducklings
The smell of cut grass
Ahhh, Oregon Spring!
Coloradans must away
Cherry trees in bloom…
ok here goes! (after 20 minutes of deep, hard effort for my first attempt at haiku!!)
She sits docile and meek
Serene on a bed of tender green
A heart leaps in delight!
Brava, Dear Sharon!
A stunning tribute to our
Lovely visitor!
Thanks Cathy! I did rather enjoy myself with the haiku exercise! Thank you for the little tutorial at the side
Hugs, Sharon
