The Various Definitions of Bound (as told by haiku)
by Emily Reed
He takes off bounding
to catch quicksilver rabbits
hidden in snow pockets.
Wearing cozy fleece
pajamas on Thursday is
better by leaps, bounds.
Spellbound by flying bats,
open mits, cracker jacks, and
sliding into home.
Sure, I forgive you,
but now we're bound together
with flimsy stitches.
Venture towards forest
forbidden boundaries and smell
the sinful, sweet spruce
to catch quicksilver rabbits
hidden in snow pockets.
