seasonal
#1
Foaling.
Time, feet first out burst.
Budding, swelling bursting forth.
Bright light, new day. Start.
Nurturing
Start right, richly veined.
Overflowing growing grass.
Soft breath nuzzling.
Breeding
Nuzzling, nipping.
Leap, thrust, hold. Innocent eyes.
May pierce, slipped, held deep.


Growing.
Deep sleep, dappled shade.
Bugs biting, raindrops kissing.
Play fighting, free running.
Resting.
Running sweat, deep heat.
Matron guarded, siesta.
Refreshing dawn dew
Replenishing.
Due for a long drink.
Full fat gloaming, evening mist.
Dark green gathering.

Weaning.
Gathering clouds pile
Flanked deep, heaving gates aside.
Hard tack, ground to creep.
Learning.
Creep, cross over. Call
on the wing. Path flight first thought.
Restricted. Re-zoned.
Leaving.
Zoned in, colour cloned.
Leaching last connecting shades.
Last step, door is closed.

Embryo.
Closed off, bagged bundle.
Fast expanding awareness.
Fruitful winter store.
Lockdown.
Store shed, bellies full.
Cracks plugged to mud and decay.
Main stay, straw and hay
.
Waiting.
Hay prepped, full mangers.
Cloy clods, frost, sun, wind clearing.
Emerging bud time.

This was a sort of experiment of playing with the forms inspired by some poetry i viewed at this site: http://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/...poems-2011 (In particular some of the 2007 poems). I was trying to combine the connecting word thread that holds a a crown of sonnets together into a series of Haiku (or senyru). So I've flung the thought down on paper without any editing to get some feed back on if the idea works, before i do any further work on this.
