Welcome are the passionately curious

"There was one Elephant--a new Elephant--an Elephant's Child--who was full of 'satiable curiosity, and that means he asked ever so many questions. And he lived in Africa, and he filled all Africa with his 'satiable curiosities." Rudyard Kipling

Haiku


Haiku #Summertime
Summer wind in trees
Green-winged butterflies trapped in
A black, crooked cage.
Haiku #Wintertime
Crystal claws grasp roofs,
Your wicked spells everywhere,
You beauty, you witch.
Haiku #Miscellaneous 1
Snatched sunlight, gathered
With essence of spring flowers
All in a tea-bag.
Haiku #Miscellaneous 2
Glue binds book leaves to
Leather limbs, forming the door
To another world.

Memory whistles to me this Winter Day

Last summer, when the days
Stretched themselves out a-mornings,
Yawned, chased, yielded and heeled beside the sun.
Pools lapped, pleaded,
'Til late evenings, circling, finally curled about themselves.
Stars
winked and swished their tails
and waited to Pounce.
