Dogs Barking Haikus
See the tree stump over there,
Makes me want to pee

Beginning again
Newfoundland barks a new land
How love licks the space

Practice presence now
Border collie barks today
Paws and see, for now

Two people in love
Border Collie New found land
Where to place a home?

Going on a walk
I am, just to hear the walk
And you show up UP

It begins again
Where will the Blood hound get blood?
Watch his tail wag

Dog is like a love
[r] completely in to you
Courageous 'n love

Bark, Bark, Bark, Bark, Bark!
My bark is a dober man's
Feel me bark through you

Laughing at those bangs.
Baa Baa Sheep dog sheep
Talking behind sheepdogs back

What is your name dog?
See, I am Rick Anderson
1/7 desire life

Saint Bernard loves life
Needs a snowy Avalanche
[t]his way Snowman lives

Poodle, doodle dee
Dee needs a toy poodle see
[re]dress & [un]dress her need…

Psycho Chihuahua
Stares and shakes & bares it all
Caffeinated fang

Husky leads a stray
Dog home from the frozen fray
Cold pant[s] had to [s]wear

Spot light black and white
Greyhound bus, race, rabbid race
Civil rights, you [k]now?

See spot run - sun spot
My corona, my blue eyes
Sees a thirsty dog

Tale wags Tail
Write it, lick it, do it well
Tail lags moment wags

My dog loves chasing
Runners; holds them to their feet
Disappearing shoes

This year is year one
Startled by how I miss you
Clapping eyes of tears

Practice unleashes
You flee from suddenness gone
Started dog scatters

Routine loves trails
brush, glowing, yellow grass flowing
border lying down

tennis balls the world
mistakes your eye for a stake
racket in my head

Dog tired, I'm tired
I feel less vulnerable
I miss you Jerry

picking stray hair, re
main between us legs love Dog
Counting sheepishly

can't cure this head cold
use your nose for everything
without you, I wept

without you and you
departed in general terms
doors death jarred open

Frisbee as a bee
Your intensity jumps high
Black Brown and white love missed

Jerry shows up
running
Ben[t] on all
fours
Rick ran with one Utah
Day

Black and white
is sight
brown and white
is light
falling ill
searching Mary

You chased a ball
As vigorously as I
Loved to fall in your love

two males peeing
together; dog and man [re]
late, I miss Frisco

friscodance compa
ny tail [s]weeps[so] stunning
ly [e] yes [f]all crying

That black Labrador
surprise, I rise to renew
my dog breath hear[the]art

Those working eyes will
Dream of zion days and cir
cle[ar] through the circle

I will re[member]
You, your curious gaze, still
Rivets my being

Happen stance, instant
Everything under your nose
Loving gesture, flops

For Frisco, come see
You're more beautiful
Each day man seeing

I laugh wide open
Stomach ache through accounting
Frisco loves us all

Happy Rottweiler
Is a curious oddit
ty, guarding my love

Merry more is sun
love comes for you everywhere
shows up around you
