"'Hal is Dead!' She cries, 'My coyote ~ !'
And the starling's feather flares.
Coyly Cupola fixes eyes
Upon the forest floor,
A verdict from the trees ~
Shrill note, a cacophony's
Discord hollows from far flung breeze
Of Polar Ends the Bears
Thrill with bittern's strife ~
'Give thanks, a coyote enters now our land,
Threshold crossed, of Central

Gift, Hal's race, brought us life.
So, here, in Disenchanted Forest
We kneel, hail High Spirits ~ !
And every fauna here, once dead,
Born once of sorrow, bowed
Head, or soul, paw entrapped, gladly
We receive coyote, A Canine Fauve ~
In tearful, reverent joy."

~ * The Lampost News ~
Hal is Dead! The ranger sighs, startled.
The forest, eavesdropping, nears,
And comes, and looks the way Hal looks,
Fears not the source of tears;
Fears not the things it hears.
Till a sad rush of pall bearers
Till a mad shriek a starling shouts
Shrills the tattered death of life ~
"A Blessing, for your eyes have lit our land,
Of thanks, our Emerald City gives,
For Hal a coyote graced our urban wilds,"
~ The Mayor of Blooms & Fauna,
A blessing bestows, in Central Park.
"Emerald green, our links, a park
Well known, Olmsted Country Clube ~
Where, free for all, a pinecone sinks
Hole in One, where Strawberry Fields
Spin a disc,
Imagine." Sign Says ~
~ * Hal Here Romped * ~
The forest, eavesdropping, hears,
Kneels, prays prayers for coyote child.
Hal was one year old, if heart, bold.
Hal is Dead! The forest cries startled.
The forest, eavesdropping, tears,
Falls silent, and hears the way Hal heard,
Fears not the source of tears;
Fears not the things it hears.
So, here in the Mourning an Emerald
City knows, flora, fauna, human
Alike together kneel about the coyote
And ever hear what brought Hal near ...
A City, beacon of hope,
For centuries known, A Lady Liberty
Welcomes all ~
For Hal, brave heart, showed such little fear
And flora, fauna, human bend
Together here
In tearful, reverent joy
Till a sad rush of pall bearers
Till a mad shriek a starling shouts
Shrills the tattered death of life ~ !
Hal is Dead! Hal is Dead!

"Nuit d'étoiles ~
Nuit d'étoiles, sous tes voiles,
Night of stars, beneath your veils,
Sous ta brise et tes parfums,
Amid your breezes and your scents,
Triste lyre qui soupire,
While a sad lyre is sighing,
Je rêve aux amours défunts.
I dream of my late loves.
La sereine mélancolie
A serene and melancholy
Vient éclore au fond de mon coeur,
Suddenly unfolds at the bottom of my heart,
Et j'entends l'âme de ma mie
And I sense the soul of my beloved
Tressaillir dans le bois rêveur.
Trembling in the dreaming forest.
Je revois à notre fontaine
I see again in our fountain
Tes regards bleus comme les cieux;
Your glances blue as the skies;
Cettes rose, c'est ton haleine,
This rose, it is your breath,
Et ces étoiles sont tes yeux.
And these stars are your eyes."
~ Théodore Faullin de Banville
"Je revois à notre fontaine
I see again splashing in our fountain
Of Ink
A well ~ told Fable of Fontaine ...
Tes regards bleus comme les cieux;
Your glances blue as skies
A Raven eyes a Fox, a wedge
Of cheddar cheese,
Covets a Fauve
If Too
Clever
By thirds ...
Of fowl
At 33rd & Byrd
A Mont Blanc Fountain Pen
Fauns design upon."

"Of fowl
At 33rd & Byrd

Feathers upon ~
For Quill

If no Mont Blanc."

"Nuit d'étoiles ~
Nuit d'étoiles, sous les voiles,
Night of stars, beneath the veils
A city tells, Troupe of Allegro
I napped among, if nameless, lame,
A few, fame now I know
Of them
Who sleep, oft still weep
Upon park bench late at night
Beneath veils a city
Oft not tells ...
Those of Hats, them of silks, who defy hunger
Or number.
Turns, turns! The sky of the velvet of the vêt of stars
Of gold twinkles slowly,
A church bell
Told me sadly ..."
