Living With All The Other Creatures

For over forty years, Dennis Herrell has been writing both serious and humorous poems about his life in this civilized society. He finds his poems by keeping his eyes and ears open and his mouth shut. Mostly. He really likes to write short funny poems that are like verbal snapshots or vignettes of some of the remarkable living creatures that share our world. He especially likes Haiku, with its 3-line, condensed view of nature and life, and has published over 150 Haiku so far.
In his four other "Creatures" Ebooks, Dennis has shared his poems about Underwater Dwellers, Insects, Birds, and Cats & Dogs. Now he will share his poetic take on many of the other creatures in our world. Not all of them, of course, because that would take a book of encyclopedic size, but enough to have some poetic fun. Sure, there are the usual suspectssuch as a cow, goat, horse, pig, and sheep. But, picture in your minda camel, ferret, giraffe, hippo, porcupine, sloth, or walrus. All fun to look at, and even more fun to write about. So, join Dennis in his little poetic stories about some of the other creatures that we live with, and that make our lives more meaningful, pleasurable, and interesting.
Dennis Herrell was a teacher, a sporting goods wholesaler, a gift/card wholesaler, and antique dealer. He is now retired. His writing life began in college, and continued off and on during his working years. Dennis lives in Texas, a big, diverse land of desert, mountains, hills and valleys, meadows, prairies, rivers, lakes, and salt water bays and beaches. He calls the almost sub-tropical city of Houston his home. Dennis loves his 1920's bungalow in the old historical Heights district of Houston. So, join Dennis in his little poetic stories about some of the other creatures that we live with, and that make our lives more meaningful, pleasurable, and interesting. Have a little laugh, and perhaps a little sigh of wonderment, too.
