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 #49, Jane Reichhold's "Winter Solstice"




Inspirational haiku

winter solstice
warmth of friends
return the sun

deep snow
the horse walks the paths
of summer

My inspirations

from deep in the longest night
sun child is reborn

~ 2 ~
 
winter's longest night
old man holds his wife close
for warmth

~ 3 ~

winter solstice
moose shivers in the forest
goose basks in the sun

~ 4 ~
 
frosted garden
old orb weaver is dead
eggs wait in the cold

    Someone really needs to tell Moose to get out of the darkness and join Goose in the light! ;)

    The death of the old Orb Weaver reminds me so much of Charlotte's Web...
