how I want to climb
the tempered drift of storm winds,
lazy carousel

and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.

Lazy carousel
porcelain ponies so bright
make me five again...
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
Make me live again...
Going broke with richer men
Staking the whole house
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."
- Horace
Staking the whole house
what is mine will be for me
my fence will make sure
this is NOT me, but it fit the haiku ... don't mind me, I just felt compelled to tell you this...

I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

Oh what a party
late September underneath
The stars. Man, it rocked.
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."

The stars. Man, it rocked.
And the gorgeous Northern Lights
above Kiz' prairie.![]()
O schaurig ists übers Moor zu gehn,
wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche.
Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797 - 1843) (see avatar) Der Knabe im Moor/The Lad in the Moor
Above Kiz' prairie
'gainst the Rocky Mountain rim
generous windsong
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."
- Horace
generous windsong
float stars pinned to night, wind twists
their bright bodies, chime
"Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot in this house, they are company and don't let me catch you remarking on their ways like you were so high and mighty."
Tossed to the mantle
breaking the crust off the ice
forever freeze-dry
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."

forever freeze-dry
the planet as we know it
keep the tradition
