red coals . . .
she persuades me
to stay in bed

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.

Very nice.
I’m surprised this hasn’t received more responses. It’s a good one. :)
Ember of passion – nice and forcible illness.
I’d also like to see this in a haibun!
But on the other hand it’s already novelesque! ;-)
Thanks everyone for your thoughtful comments.
And I’ll give the haibun idea some thought Alan, but it’s hard enough (for me at least) to write (hopefully) good three-liners – I don’t know if I have the wherewithall to tackle an entire paragraph. Ha! Thanks again all, Mike
