Four Haiku
Ho-Nee-Um Pond open.
Two muskrats perched on ice edge.
Winter receding.
Thirty-nine degrees.
Wind at fifteen miles per hour.
Early March weather.
Trees creaking in woods.
Live branches rub against dead.
Birds chirping in sync.
Meeting of turkeys –
planning the day's road crossing –
during the rush hour.
