Mountain Haiku

Mountain Haiku
From the 1997 Collection


blue canoe
    ducks drift alongside —
        in grass a crouched cat




pentax pal
    shot the mountains
        perfect exposure




icy water churns
    through canyon boulders
        falls to green pools




hands on mountain land
    my child's feet once knew —
        ghost house




Sierra Buttes lookout
    metal on crag
        liquid wind




250 miles north
    snow striped blue cone —
        that's Mt. Shasta?




down the mountain trail
    wild chirp in tall cedars —
        rattler!




far below us
    canyon walls of rock...
        twice the golden eagle




jump stump to stump
    winding mountain creek
        the cat springs behind

What’s New…

White Owl Web is in the process of re-designing the entire site. Big job! This is going to take a while, folks, and it will have to be done in stages. Thank goodness for CSS and Dreamweaver! Looks like a lot of nights of midnight oil here. White Owl Web hopes you will enjoy the new design, organization, and updates. This site has been gently nudging the Owl for a very long time to give it some serious attention. The time has come!
