A snail’s poem…

some equate being a snail
with being slow
going so far as to
call letters
delivered by hand
Snail Mail
because it takes awhile
for them to get
where they are going
and though
it’s true that
I’m not exactly
speedy
slow is relative
I don’t have to travel far
since
everything I want
is right where I am
I take in my
surroundings
climbing
here and there
sunning myself
munching on
this and that
and enjoying
each day
as it comes
I live
in the moment
seeing the wonder
in everything
if my world
seems tiny to you
I can assure you
it’s perfect
for me
I don’t have a boss
I don’t work all week
waiting
for two days off
I don’t have any bills
pay any taxes
have to fight in any
wars
Mother Nature
provides everything
I could ever want
and best of all
I’m truly
free

Young raccoon…a poem

I’m just a young
raccoon
I’m not a pest
or something
to get rid of
I have a mom
and siblings
and I’m hungry
a lot of the time
so I have to hunt
for food
often
in places
that make humans
angry
but where else
can I get food
I was taught
to dig through
the things you don’t want
I’m sorry if I make a mess
but I do the best I can
to fill my tummy
and look at me
I’m fuzzy
I’m adorable
and I’m a bandit
it would be nice
if you could
love me

Birds flying high…and I’m feeling good…lyrics

Feeling Good

… Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze driftin’ on by
You know how I feel

… It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good
I’m feeling good

… Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom on a tree
You know how I feel

… It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good

… Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don’t you know
Butterflies all havin’ fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done, that’s what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
For me

… Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

… It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life

… It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
It’s a new life
For me

… And I’m feeling good
I’m feeling good
I feel so good
I feel so good
