Moss Walk

We followed the sandy road
Lil wanted to play stick
Ki-Anne made splashes again and again.
Checked the May Apple crop
and traveled through the old orchard that was a hundred years or more.
The walk was up hill and hot.
Lil found a treasure...a water hole behind a terrace doing its job.
The trapped rain water felt so good and cool
even prissy Lizzy had a sit down.
I gathered moss,
with low environmental impact, 
 to add to my water garden.
It makes an amazing natural filter
and it grows!

Kharma A K Word

If my circumstances reflect my actions I need to become much Kinder.  In the last two months my Canon died and required 44 emails, almost two months, two shipments and numerous calls to have warranty repair completed.  Andrew's truck motor has blown (Ford).  My printer doesn't work (Canon).  My computer (Alien-Dell) blue screened. Andrew's phone (Apple iPhone 6S Plus) has stopped working two days after unconditional return (Verizon), warranty does not cover it since there is a scratch on it and insurance has a hundred fifty copay.  I would not ask me for a recommendation on any of these brands nor on their company's customer service.  I would not be KIND.

On the brighter side of K there are Klingon, my favorite, Worf
Koi
and my Ki-Anne.

Jumping Into Spring

with all feet in our neck of the woods.
Flexing those winter slow muscles, 
joyfully playing in the dirt,
and tracking down jobs.
 Things are going swimmingly
even with all the sh**.

The Creek

ran clear when we began.
A rousing game
of tossing sticks
stirred things up a bit.
The dogs
didn't mind.

The Perpetual Game Of Stick

Sorry for the butt shot but you can't miss these natural bob tails!
They always steal poor Lil's stick. I try to sneak Lil a stick of her own.  A fun game for a bunch of miss matched farm dogs.

Dogs On A Stick

Look!
Bonnie has a stick!
Let's get it!
They tried
and tried
and tried.
but
Bonnie kept her stick.

Chasing Beaver

What's that doing here?
Paddling hard we can't get near
 Almost there!  Get that rat...
How's he make his tail do that?
The message Go Away was very clear.
A limerick for Senior Adventures

Ki-Anne and Hay(nu)ku

 Ki-Anne
 daydreams quietly 
of sawing cedar
The aroma rises
from the
cut
Mindlovemisery's Menagerie with B&P Shadorma & Beyond challenges us with a new form of poetry writing today.  This is a hay(nu)ku with a reverse, I think. Sharing it with Open Link Night at  dVerse~Poets Pub.
