Clever but also heartfelt. Very good to read
love the compression, the onomatopoeia of “dashing through the brush,” and of course the pun
thank you
Beautiful. Also nice to see a haiku here
thanks. im trying to master the single page poem…
This poem made me re-read it multiple times. Well written haikus have a tendency to do that. 😎

You have such a way with words. I love “deer god” and leave this poem thinking about dears and deers, hearing and here-ing.
thanks shaun!

So much said, so few words…compelling.
