The Lighter Side of JzB

Here you will find photos, poetry, and possibly some light-hearted foolishness. For the Heavier Side

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 #153, Haru ta (Spring paddy fields)


~ 1 ~

spring paddy field
green as the Dothraki Sea
drown in the silence


~ 2 ~

spring paddy fields
land baron with MBA
sees prime golf course plot

~ 3 ~

in the paddy field
old man alone and quiet
basks in solitude


~ 4 ~

the rice comes later
for now moose and goose
dine on vetch


~ 5 ~

in the quiet field
you are never quite alone
spider is lurking

  5. Quiet but never alone in the vast expanse of the paddy fields. More money if converted to golf links. Nicely JzB!
