PATIENCE Erica Stux Daily, a hawk perches on a Power transformer, and Surveys the field and shrubbery. Feathers ruffled, he waits for Mouse or squirrel to venture Into his purview. I wonder, Does he ever catch one? A TEST Erica Stux My net brings up small monsters, Bristly creatures from the stream’s base, Alien shapes like from a horror movie. I peer at them with pure relief: Proof that all is well here; The water’s still unsullied. COMMUNICATION Erica Stux Dolphins dance a wild fandango In their azure milieu, and Nuzzle human swimmers to Welcome them into their midst. SPRING PEEPERS Erica Stux I listen for spring peepers, Those little froggy leapers. On cool evenings of spring I’m so glad to hear them sing. As long as peepers have their song, I know the world will get along.
