Kathy Flanagan, Shadow Mountain
I want to alert my neighbors to recent mountain lion activity. I don’t know for sure that’s what it is, but it sure looks like it to me. There is a young deer which has been killed and mostly eaten in the forest behind Donna Drive. Please keep an eye on your children and pets.

For Tom

 

To what shall
I liken the world?
Moonlight, reflected
In dewdrops.
Shaken from a crane’s bill.
