I love all of your Timkus and the photos as well. Inspired!!
Thanks, Liz. Motorcycles, skunks and flowers are inspirational.
You’re welcome, Tim! Now that you mention inspirational skunks, I wrote a story featuring an albino skunk.
That will be a fun story.
It’s pretty depressing actually.
Well maybe not so fun then.
🙂
A lovely message to accompany your stellar photography.
Thanks, Rebecca. I just addeed Rideku, Skunku and Kissku titles to the kus.
I enjoyed your poetry and photos, Tim, especially the skunk. Skunks have a special place in my heart.
I love skunks. Thanks, Lavinia.
Never would have thought of having motorcycles, skunks and bouquets in the same post! I love it with the perfect ‘Kus to go with!
Twisted minds work in mysterious ways. Thanks, Dale.
You mean creative minds!!
Those too.
You are not lacking, that is for sure!
Wonderful bouquet of ku’s!
And a Thanku to you, Mary Jo.
🙂
I like your -kus and the Images coming with.
Thanks, Heidi.
All epic, but the bikes are especially epic. Fabulous pic.
Thanks, Shey.
Ghost riders in the snow is what it makes me think of.
That could mafe a decent parody.
Go for it …….
I love the running skunks. I call them Cocos (as in Channel).
They can be smelly. Thanks, Leenda.
Rideku, Skunku, &Kissku. Perfect titles and execution. Thanks for the smiles, Tim!
Thanks, Bruce.
Bikes, skunks and flowers… love the ku’s and shots! Perfect scene for HD!
Thanks, Marina.
Three very distinct feelings with these photos, and your words bring them together so well. The skunk shot/GIF is priceless, I ran into one last week while visiting my home town 🙂 The bike shot is just perfect… I’d be staying indoors as well.
Thanks, Randall. The skunks are so cute.
Your haikus are all lovely and go well with the pictures.
Thanks, Roberta.
Awesome photos!!! Love the skunk one! Very nice poems to go along with them!
The skunk is adorable. Thanks, Samantha.
Love dem skunks! We used to have quite a few in our neighborhood. Then they were wiped out by some sort of disease (distemper maybe?). They’ve started to come back but the numbers are low. 🥲
Thanks, Carol. We used to have a lot more skunks, also. But since the Great Horned Owls moved in, the skunk, bunny, and raccoon populations have gone down. GHOs are they only active preditors of skunks.
Owls sound pretty cool too. I discovered a hornet nest in my yard a couple years ago and was trying to figure out how to get rid of them. I didn’t want to use poison. Happily, days after realizing the nest was there, a skunk showed up and started feasting on them in the evenings. A week later the nest was gone. 🙂
Skunks are beneficial little critters.
Kisses in the dark are a welcome happening.
Those skunks are too, cute!
Nice Kus, especially the SkunkKu! Thanks Tim!
You are welcome, Resa. The skunks are adorable.
Wow, SKUNKS – very few make survive in my parts – you might see maybe one a summer, but for the most part either don’t like our hospitality or the coyotes figured out they can still be lethal hunters with a clothespin on their muzzles.
Mayber your skunks were descimated by skunk distemper. Carol mentioned the skunks where she lives were wiped out. Thanks, Brian.
If You brought a flower for your spouse it is so nice 👍🌺💖 I hate when here all mens are shamed to be gentleman to their woman’s and expecting to be loved? Touched? Balkan mentality 🧠
That’s a shame. Thanks, Meli.
Oh I just love this post Tim! Wonderful ..
