We all need others
Primates are gregarious
Pain to be alone.
Acting boosts ego
The spotlight augments notice
Use your success well.
A child must show off
Filling need for attention
Are we all childlike?
Do unto others--
But do to what others need
Jains respect all life.
Hatshepsut's Egypt
No domination No wars
She centered on peace.
Hatshepsut's Egypt
Opened new routes of exchange
An abundant land.
Hatshepsut's Egypt
Brought healing herbs and incense
Abundance prevailed.
Jon is my helper
He orders all my writings
Be lost without him.
Eyesight is precious
Protection and care a must
Darkness is a curse.
Swan on smooth water
Its 'V' wake trails out
Soon disappearing.
Buffleheads from north
Migrating south through our land
What makes them do so?
Pheasants at home here
Brought in from Mongolia
So adaptable.
Squirrels by Capitol
Brought in as an exotic
Grouped population
Beaver in Europe
Introduced for its warm fur
Will it now fit in?
Whales were source of oil
Almost near decimation
Humans found kinship.
Precocious young birds
Able to walk very soon
Type of survival.
Eggs hatch at different
Times. Laid and hatched in sequence
Last hatchling a runt.
Nest made from wet mud
Robins and swallows do so
Used, as is cement.
Male Robin gives worm
Nuptial gift to female
Acting juvenile
Unfertilized egg
Ostrich beats all with huge size
Largest single cell.
