The Lighter Side of JzB

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.

Carpe Diem #87 - Yesterday

Four thoughts on Yesterday


Just one day ago
Before these problems surfaced
A much simpler time

~  ~  ~  ~  ~
 
Then I was alone
Nor was I even searching
Now I am with you

 ~  ~  ~  ~  ~

That road lies behind
Never to be trod again
Now forget the past

 ~  ~  ~  ~  ~

The road we've traveled
We are in between that and
The road yet to be


Carpe Diem # 87

    2nd one is my fave! All deceptively simple if we want them to be, but very full when we let them be.

    deep messages in such few words. I especially like the last one and the knowledge of in-between-ness. So true.

    The first one is a thought I think rather often.
