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 #90 - Tulips




 TULIPS

Delicate blossoms
Beautiful for a few days
'Till ruined by rain

~  ~  ~  ~  ~

If I share tulips
When bulbs turn into blossoms
Will you share two lips?

 ~  ~  ~  ~  ~

Made for each other
As if it were destiny
Tulips and kissing 

~  ~  ~  ~  ~

Petals like kissed lips
Beautiful convexity
Arrayed for delight

~  ~  ~  ~  ~

Deep within those lips
An eager wanderer probes
Questing for nectar

~  ~  ~  ~  ~

    What a nice word game! "Will you share two lips" definitely gets my vote. Ese

    That last haiku in this set is the most delicious. Sensuous. lips, probes, nectar.
    So titillating!
