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 Special #50, Kikaku's "Kagura Dance at night "

inspirational haiku by Kikaku

Kagura dance at night
the performer's breath white
inside his mask


my inspiration

who can say
what moves the dancer's spirit
moves her body too


another inspired by maggie

night dancing angels
draw forth eternal light
defeating daemons

    Both full of gracious movements...dancing away between angels and demons.

    Oh I meant to comment on your haiku-ed response because it's wonderful. But I forgot...saw it in email and forgot before got to my blog. Am so glad you reposted here for all to enjoy. Your first haiku is very nice too...we do move to what we feel, don't we?
