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.

Wandering in the Imaginary Garden

After an absence of about a year and a half, I find myself again in the Garden.  I'm very busy between now and Easter, so not much time for deep reflection.

So - only a couple of haiku inspired by a picture and accompanying haiku that a friend posted on FaceBook.  The picture is of a labyrinth made of rocks laid out on a bed of sand.  His inspiration came from Philip Cousineau's book, The Art of Pilgrimage, which I have not read.


in my pilgrimage 
wandering the labyrinth 
will I find myself

~~::~~

in this crooked path
wandering i find myself 
now i am amazed 



These were written a couple days apart.  The second one presented here was written first.  I did not have it in mind when I wrote the first one.  I think they're at least marginally relevant to Peter Cole's poem posted at The Garden today.

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!
JzB
