But wait a minute, I thought you were "The Haiku Guy."

But seriously, here are a few revisions:


morning chill,
long after morning:
lingering fog


the calving glacier
echoes like cannon fire;
a seal pup yawns


two steps beyond
the shadow of the redwoods:
the sun!


reveille --
flushing the toilet,
I drown out the trumpeter


all the beautiful trees --
a vacationing artist
sketches a cabin


millions of summers
in the making:
the sand between my toes


and one more new one from the redwoods:


alone
in the redwoods --
not alone


David R.
