The Lighter Side of JzB

Here you will find photos, poetry, and possibly some light-hearted foolishness. For the Heavier Side
of JzB see my other blog, Retirement Blues. (There be dragons!)

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.

Pandora

At jasmine calyx I found this picture and, of course, her wonderful poem.



Which, of course, inspired me

Pandora
You are no villainess
You had no evil intent
Simply god-given curiosity
And bad judgment

Pandora
You are also a victim
Zeus knew you were only human
And gave you a temptation
No human could resist

Pandora
You are Eve in other guise
First woman, mother of all
Drawn by the lure of knowledge
Of good and packaged evil 

Pandora
You are as lovely
As a Tolkein elf
And with your human unwisdom
Have cursed us all

Forever

This is a fun blog. Light-hearted banter is welcome. Snark is not. If you want to fight, find my other blog.

Play nice, and we'll all have fun.

I like to return visit, when I can - but I need to find you. If you have multiple blogs, please leave a direct link to the appropriate post.

Cheers!
JzB
