School me in your ways,
lion, teach me stealth and strength
as you breathe on me.

    I pray the same, for strength if not stealth… A beautiful way to put your prayer, MMT!

    That’s not a dragon, it’s a Shishi (Stone Lion), but it’s a cool pic and a cool haiku!

    Love guardian lions! Prefer not to ever get schooled by or feel the breath of one on my neck though 😉

    Hmmm . . . I wonder if I got one of those, if it would scare off the woodchucks and deer? 🙂
