But seriously, here are a few revisions:

David R.

morning chill,
long after morning:
lingering fog

nicely done!

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

not really getting a lot out of this. maybe too 'obvious'?

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

nice

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

well done

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

much better! but why not 'the' and 'the'?

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

nice feeling

and one more new one from the redwoods:


alone
in the redwoods --
not alone

and one more from the corn belt (this should be centered, but i can't figure out how to format that):

driving
home
alone
no not alone
the
grass
hopper
re-
minds
me

if you have never taken a ride with a grasshopper in the car, i can recommend it for excitement!
