two leaves
on the water
slow dancing

through the canyon
the river runs
home

coyote creep
in the canyon at night
before going home.
like them, I return
to you

A pleasing, clever concept and I appreciate the lovely leaf dancing /canyon reference having lived/spent time in northern New Mexico crossing the Rio Grande every weekday on my way back and forth to work in Taos.  I'm puzzled by this haiku/renga pattern, however.  Not that I'm any expert on any of the eastern forms,  but can you explain what you did?  Or is this simply meant as a 'free form' expression of the art?
