Inspired by the Poetry challenge I participated in in April, I continued to explore Japanese poetry. The Haibun is a form of poetry I particularly enjoyed experimenting with and was pleased to feature our very own Dolly the bunny (named after my legendary Grandma) as the lead role in the following piece!
Dolly Mixture
She loved laying on her butterscotch belly.
Floppy-eared, and legs akimbo she gazed lazily from the cool corner of her ragged run.
Neat nose twitching, she nonchalantly concluded that her new life was not to be sniffed at.
He had her back, Spoon-eared and off-white though he was.
The daisy-dotted lawn chuckled at her brazen bathing
and the soft sun diffused into the cooling air
Bouncing from budding bushes
A baby tiger
She munched the fresh grass unphased

I am a Creative Life & Leadership Coach, Creative Workshop Facilitator, Podcaster and Poetess. I am absolutely passionate about my work and love helping women to heal anxiety and to connect to their Creative Fire and to fully experience and express their uniquely feminine power. If you would like to experience the transformative experience of being coached by me email me, samallencoachingcreatively@gmail.com for a free, no-obligations demo session.
I began writing poetry on a daily basis when I lost my Father back in 2015 and I haven't stopped since. Writing in nature is as much a part of me as brushing my teeth and I am so very grateful for this outlet in my life.
Aside from all things poetic, I am a jogger, a hiker, a creative mover and I also co-lead an online Untaming Femininity Tribe for women wishing to explore their femininity on their own terms. View all posts by Sam Allen Creative Coach

This is LOVELY. I would love to join in these poetry challenges but can’t work out how to do it or where you post your entry. Being blind I can’t find out. But this is an endearing poem Sam. So beautiful
