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 #161, Taurus (Zodiac 2)



~ 0 ~

look for the taurus
[not always high in the sky]
above a full moon

~ 1 ~

stubborn plodding
taurus has eyes on the prize
but will it get there

~ 2 ~

a constellation
light years away rules one's life
sounds like bull to me

~ 3 ~

venus rules in you
but does your sign oh taurus
make you love a bull

~ 4 ~

moose says to goose
taurus leaves me unimpressed
i too am a bull

~ 5 ~

like a taurus
single minded orb weaver
has eyes on the flies
