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 #551, abandoned

Sunset on my street - Nov 28, 2012


shorn of green raiment
bare limbs raised to the pale sky
grasping emptiness

    Bare branches abandoned, without leaves anymore ... that's the link to autumn. Thanks JzB. I couldn't really link this prompt to autumn, but now I see it ...

    bare limbs, lovely haiku and your photo depicts the end of autumn so well...the bareness, not the early colourful part...abandonned.

    grasping emptiness is a lovely, achy image. :)

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!
