Corn Fields, Canada Geese, Sandhill Cranes, Me Surprised: Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

I took the Road Less/
Traveled and learned: Sandhill Cranes/
graze in fields here, too.

Two Old Cranes’ View Of Life: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Sonnet

Two old cranes /
strolled calmly down the street./
I thought it somewhat strange /
that they wandered on their feet.

They could soar on mighty wings,/
not on legs thin as rails./
But they were examining things/
close-up; exploring details.

They oozed curious serenity/
as they strolled along their way./
These two old cranes taught me plenty/
of how to approach my day.

Two old, calm cranes, enjoying life together, leisurely.
They reminded me of you: Happy Anniversary!
