the high desert
hangs a rain tail
from a cloud

Destruction Island
protects Ruby Beach
from wayward sailors

for luck I hang
a full moon
over the garden

a vulture circles
seven times
before landing

a sealion wears
fishing gear
around his neck

These are all wonderful...but I especially loved the "luck" one with the full moon. Lovely!
such a variety of images, and yet they all hang together!
The range is amazing. The last one stirs and troubles me. Well done. Thanks.
Beautiful!
Never stop writing!
Outstanding series!
Well, I like the first and 3rd the best. I have seen the rain tail and the full moon hanging over the garden. Nicely done. I live in the desert and I like birds also.
That is a lovely series. I particularly like the idea of you hanging up a full moon.
I appreciate you sharing these all. I read the last one differently, thinking of the sea lion as a sailor. (The comments straightened me out.) I did like it with my interpretation. It is sad with the other.
Patois: Don't let yourself get 'straightened out' away from an inspired interpretation.
so many messages around us, always. Lovely string of verses.
