Such a beautiful thought and message in so few words. Becoming comfortable with our own self is a basic human need. Wonderful

crazy how in-sync two strangers can be
\"Sometimes, as I drift idly on
Walden Pond,
I cease to live and begin, to be.”

so surreal this journey guided by Poesy\'s ink

The Touron
L. B. Mek said:

Yellowstone seems to bring out
the moronic in visitors
so many wildly unbelievable tales
and they never learn
rather with each generation, becoming
more ignorantly bold...
(where\'s Hemingway and his rifle ink
to protect his beloved Yellowstone
of scenic tranquillity)

Penicillium Notatum
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
your words bring back sound
of my sister and father
sneezing, their tear filled eyes
of shackled frustration..
(such a great write)

Life
L. B. Mek said:

so true, but
like all things essential in life
it takes wisdom to distil it accessible
and for that, I thank you wise Poet

The first two lines are enough , Bella - I can keep them in an increasingly shrinking memory....they are complete unto themselves -

The rest provide some interesting extensions....will you charge extra....? 😇

Dear Bella, Just waking each day is a miracle

Your poem is very wise and so very enjoyable the fancy rhyme.

The goal is to survive

To flourish and to thrive

From all that I derive

Be glad to be alive

I had a chuckle as only you could rhyme so flawlessly 💖

Now behave Orchi. No guffawing in church over the \'speaking blackbird\' line! Doh, it\'s poetic expression, Fido tells me.
But he talks to blackbirds. lol.

Though I know two or three of Shakey\'s quotes - \'Hamlet\' is quite \'quote-y\', if that\'s even a word?! lol.

Only those lucky enough can say yes. And yes! it\'s an amazing feeling to just be, be still, be a part of everything, finding symbiosis. Terrific haiku!

Neville said:


probably one of the most apt neogilisms I have ever encountered .. and woven so seamlessly and well throughout your bloomin brilliant poem Bella .. I heard of similar behaviour being demonstrated by grossly irresponsible so called adults involving bears when I last visited Canada some years back ... Neville

Our city doubles it\'s population in summer and it\'s full of \"Tourons\". They drive like idiots too! Anyway, loved your poem, i see the manner in which you\'ve described in our state park also. Great job!

Why do so many small children chase away birds and frighten them? And why do the parents let them?
Is it just innocent fun, or are they naughty brats? A bit of both?
