Animal Wednesday - OSI - Comb

Animal Wednesday and OSI's prompt 'comb' collided in my mind this week. I was watching the Canada Geese fly by on their way out into the fields to forage and loaf around. Then my eye was caught by the Juncos 'combing' the ground for fallen seed from the feeders. This haiku and sketch with pencil emerged.

I hope you have a great Animal Wednesday and if you are in the mood for some more haiku pop over to One Single Impression for more haiku and poetry.

Merry Christmas

                     I hope you day is merry, full of love, family, friends and all that makes you happy.



Jingle Bell, Jingle bell...

When I noticed a painting for sale by another artist and my muse sparked for a moment I decided to try to copy it. I thought this was so much fun. I wish I could think of the artist's name. Anyway I thank him for awakening my recalcitrant muse. Jingle bell rock is one of my favorite Christmas songs.

Stillness

At this time of year

it's difficult not to be still

snowfall muffles noise

Activity halts

nerves are soothed by

natures cool blanket

The fireplace draws us

to its side like Mother's arms

welcoming and warm

A cup of hot tea

can have the same affect

enjoyed with memories
