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 #132 -- Strangers





just walk on by
do not nod smile nor wave
strangers when we meet

~:~

wild adulterer
searching always on the prowl
for sex with strangers

~:~

divorce court
two who once shared a bed
now strangers

~:~

he was a soldier
she was running from her fate
strange bedfellows

~:~

I'll never meet you
people from around the world
my internet friends

~:~

fado memory
even friends like moose and goose
were strangers once

~:~

mating spiders
no time to get to know her
she has him for lunch

~:~

  3. I've lived that divorce court scenario, and you've described it well in just a handful of words.

  8. Though we will never meet in person, I look forward to hearing from all of you every day.

    Mystic - Me too.

    Mr Uttley - Fado was the prompt a few weeks ago, and that was the first time I did a moose and goose entry.

    Cheers!

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!
