BadLands


Multicolored burro,
Reaches for companionship, 
Feeling alone

Prehistoric soils,
This moment I watch,
Past windowpanes

Braying burro,
Watched by young love ,
Ignoring morning

Pacing buffalo,
Questioning imaginary gate,
Forever confined

Dear OldSchoolHaiku: Really enjoyed these photo-haiku of the Badlands in Alberta? Totally awesome...love the feeling of love here! Feeling for the buffalo "forever confined" yes, that certainly is his fate! Very observationally excellent!
