Great Grey Owl


The more he saw, the less he spoke.
The less he spoke, the more he heard.
Why can't we be like that wise old bird?

White Wolf


So white that we can see his coat
Clearly, even in the darkness.
So daunting that we become motionless
As if paralyzed from waist down.

Elephant


Strong enough to trample their peers,
Smart enough to live in harmony with them,
Definitively better than man.

Polar Bear


Strong like a rock,
Sweet like a cotton ball.

Sea Star


In many respects, sea stars appear
to be simple animals, the kind of organism
we often classify as a “lower life form”.
But no matter how laymen or scientists
describe them, there is little doubt
that anytime we see a sea star,
it tends to command our attention.

Dragonfly


Stillness of a pond,
Dragonfly leaves lily pad
To become the Dragon.

Squirrel


Good Morning, Squirrel!
I heard you say,
"Look at all the snow today!"
Good afternoon, Squirrel!
I heard you say,
"Won't you please come out to play?"
Good Evening, Squirrel!
I heard you say,
"Time to go home, right away!"
Goodnight, Squirrel!
I heard you say,
"Warm inside is where we stay!"
Go to sleep, Squirrel!
I heard you say,
"Wake tomorrow to a new day!"
