If you were a bird
You’d dazzle in hues of blues
Stunning, morose you
***
You call to the stars
Wings spread out to collect them
Laughter from afar
***
Fishing for the moon
Never reaching yet so sure
You will catch it soon

OMG .. did you just come back? i so missed you here

You call from afar the stars which shine on your hooves and horn giving that sparkling effect. Brush your tail girl. Awesome Haikus as per usual beautiful one. Welcome momentarily back???

😆. I’ll forever be hooving and horning. I’m back, because I’ve started a new job. It helps to write; very meditative. Not sure how long I’ll stay, but I’m trying to be more consistent. And you?

As for me I don’t know about posting it is becoming with fewer postings. I have finished my first book with only the glossary and the references to do and sending it to a professional editor. And then I will look for a publisher. I have started on 2 books which I may merge into one. I haven’t decided yet and if I do the second book will be halfway to being published. It is on homesteading with lots of humor that I will inject.
I feel the same way about you when we dance with words and wit. I feel alive. Be well my friend
