Best Things Here Are Free

autumn the crows form murders
a 'murder' is the word for a gathering of crows
and not the meat in a television show
the oaks fill with murders of crows

randy bucks  gallop on pavement 
 salmon spawn
a browsing doe on my front lawn
munches out and returns to her faun

the woodchucks do not predict weather
they deck out in knee length leather
and figure out how to make their lives better

below the hills owned by fauna
the paved Triangle in its trauma
lays in its pricey haze
