stolen kisses
barn swallows twitter
in the eaves

About the author: I live with my wife Shirlee on a cattle ranch near the little ski town of Red Lodge, Montana, and have been loving and writing haiku for several years now. I draw my inspiration from the images of the high-plains, mountains, weather, wildlife, livestock, ranch work and outdoor recreation which surround me daily.

    Hi, Mike
    it is very nice!

    on the tip of the elm-tree,
    gusher sparrows are hushing.
    the nightingales arrived...

    This is so very lovely....sensual, timeless, descriptive--makes me think of three pm that lovely time of day before the magnetic pulls of dusk come on. Congratulations

    g'day Mike

    This was lovely to wake up to on this wet day on the mountain top; it took me back to my youth.

    Peace and Love

    michael, here i thought i was alone, once more; observing birds, from many species, seemingly oblivious to my stolen kisses, with kisses of their own...

    ruffling of feathers--
    her hand
    rakes through my hair
