The Lighter Side of JzB

Here you will find photos, poetry, and possibly some light-hearted foolishness. For the Heavier Side
of JzB see my other blog, Retirement Blues. (There be dragons!)

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 #239, curiosity

~ 1 ~

my ignorant quest
that is why i blog

~ 2 ~

old man even now
after all these years wonders
about life and love

~ 3 ~

moose and goose are not
curious like the cat - and
they are still alive

~ 4 ~

spider's curious
only about one thing
next fly's arrival

~ 5 ~

envious is green
passionate is purple

    That second haiku is in my opinion the best, I like the imagery you've painted in there.

    Curiosity kills the Cat! Why the cat and not another creature! They're all curious,too! Nicely JzB!

    Like Spider, I'm ready for the next morsel too, although I would prefer it not to be a fly!

    The second one is perfect. I really love it and I believe it to hold a lot of truth.

    Love the spider, and if you see mine, you will know why I love the cat haiku.
