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 #130 -- Full Snow Moon



grey light
limns bare ancient branches
Icicle shadow


~:~

full moon looms high
sparkling snow crust reflects
world in black and white

~:~

crystal moonbeam
shattering icicle prism
stark winter light

~:~
 
coldest moon
harsh light illuminates
bones in the snow


~:~
 
moose and goose
under the full snow moon
hungry together

illuminating web work

  1. You've captured the icy moon in all her glory. AND given me a vision of a moose and a goose huddling together to keep out the cold!

  2. I'm partial to the orb weaver today, plying her craft in the light of the heavenly orb.
