four – catsignal

haiku 607

sudden honking –
over the parking lot
four Canada geese

one, two
threefourfive kits
then the mother raccoon

four chirps –
light snowfall
begins

four meows –
cat prints
in the snow

city life –
one night a fat possum
tonight four raccoons

Four basic premises of writing: clarity, brevity, simplicity and humanity.
