Love Notes

By

The Dog's fondness will not "paws".
The Cub can't "bear" if you're untrue.
"You're purr-fect," says the Cat.
Birds build love nests for you.

Bakers will always knead you.
Whales' love songs will never "seas".
Lab Rats think you're amazing.
Hives buzz you're the "Bee's Knees".

A River's love flows strongly.
Mountains think you're peak perfection.
You make the Sun squeal with de-light.
Clerks put no price on your affection.

Fishermen hope to catch your eye.
Sea Lions "seal" notes with a kiss.
Tailors wear hearts on their sleeves.
Canyon's love's deep as an abyss.

You take the Wind's breath away.
For you, the Forest pines.
The Seasons want to Fall in love.
Drunk on love, are the Red Wines.

Magnets find you so attractive.
Lions want you as their "mane" squeeze.
The Stags do hold you "deer".
"We'll never leave you," say the Trees.

The Squirrels are nuts about you.
You drive Loons mad with adoration.
For you, the Wolves go wild.
Astronauts moon over you in elation.

The World around us loves you 
And tells you every day.
You have to know how to listen
To hear all they have to say.

Disruption

By
  The Rabbits' one job was simple, For they were who were in charge Of eating and keeping grass short When it was in danger of getting too large. Each animal in the old forest Would use their own expertise To keep it a nice place to live. This agreement worked well with ease. The Beavers made sure all the trees Never fell and hurt someone below. The Bears would plow walkable paths For the animals to walk in the snow. And the Rabbits, with their eating talents, Made sure all the grass stayed at bay. When it got too long and too full, Smaller animals could not find their way. But one day the others had noticed That the edge of the meadow grew tall. The Rabbits still ate the grass, But did not go near the edges at all. It was curious, thought the Raccoon. And days later, the area unmown Had grown to be even bigger! Deer and Squirrel had agreed when shown. They called together the council To discuss the issue at hand. The area where grass was uneaten Kept expanding to more of the land.

A Ghost's Lament

By
You'd think it fun as a ghost, But you have not thought it through. We have more problems than most. These laments I share are so true. I used to love drink and feast! How I loved burgers and fries! But now eating and dining has ceased- I can only enjoy with my eyes. Dressing up to go out was so fun! I'd wear makeup and don a nice blouse! But since this ghost life has begun I found I cannot leave this house! Can you hear the boredom in my voice? I twiddle my thumbs for ages! Even reading is no longer a choice When your fingers pass through the pages. And the new tenants have horrible taste! You should see what they've done with my room! Orange paint slapped on with such haste. And ugh!  You should smell her perfume! And it's I they have tried to evict! With "exorcists" and bundles of sage. Trust me, it's not them I'd have picked! Their awful habits fill me with rage! She picks her nose and he chews too loud, Dirty dishes piling up in the sink. Whoever

One of Those Days

By
Hare woke up quite early But felt good and did declare "Today is going to be great! I can feel it in the air!" Autumn was setting in, Leaves falling to the ground. A brisk chill in the wind, "I should go walk around!" The sun just started rising, Shadows danced on forest floor. Though Hares can see quite well, Where he stepped he wasn't sure. A giant oak tree root Was hidden by fallen leaves. Before Hare could stop himself He tripped, scraping his knees. Hare sat for a short while, Tending to his abrasions. Still in the same good mood He'd not be saddened by one occasion. Hare heard his tummy grumble, He knew it was breakfast time. He came upon some berries, That were clearly in their prime. He had never seen such berries- Big and round and bright! "These will be so delicious!" He thought with much delight!   He put one in his mouth, Excited to devour. But quickly spit it out- It was tart and very sour. He tried one and two more, But each was just
