Lol!
An magic instant
A prying bird, hops
on the window sill its black
eyes roam. It departs.

re: a skunk... true story: this morning about 3:00 am while trying to cool the house down with window open.
Love it

tranquility
suggestively lithe
lightly breezed tree limbs swaying
sows tranquility

Enjoyed both poems. In Portuguese the mantis is called Louva-Deus (praise God!)
Winter day
Patches of cold sun,
Heaven wearing a hesi-
tant blue! Harmony!

sturionic supermoon
bright supermoon beams
a pine martin's eyes glow bright
whilst skunks scamper near

Urban night
The coldest of moons,
Noisy neighbors hover around
Dog howls can be heard.

færies dance midst water mists
midsummer night's eve

Sunday noon
Frolicking dogs bark
happily; humans en-
grossed by their cells.

Oh!
Gegenschein,
Sleepless nights,
a lit window opposite
brings morning relief.

Enjoyed both haikus specially the last one.
Ghosts
White weird shapes
people the night. The sun re-
veals harmless blankets.
