The Lighter Side of JzB

Here you will find photos, poetry, and possibly some light-hearted foolishness. For the Heavier Side

Every day visits*
From Moose, Goose, and Orb Weaver
All seized by Haiku

"Why moose and goose?" you may ask. Back on 2/04/13 Pirate wrote a haiku with an elk in it, and I responded with
one with a moose and then included him every day. A few days later in comments Mystic asked "Where's the goose?"
So I started including her with this post on 2/07. A week later on the 14th, Mark Readfern
asked for and received a spider. The rest is history.

*Well, most days, anyway. Grant me a bit of poetic license.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday - Freestyle

This sad August, three
People I love have lost one
That they loved, to death.

Funerals are for
The living.  To mourn and to
Celebrate a life.

My sister's husband,
The mother of a dear friend,
My wife's aged aunt.

Rest in peace.
You were loved and will be missed.


Join the fun!

    I just can't resist a word play, no matter how grim.

    Cheers!

    Mystic -

    No, that's not it. You mourn the death and celebrate the life.
