i'm having trouble again, so just to get some thoughts down, i wrote a couple of haikus, i think...they are probably not worthy of comments, but i like to keep contributing to the blog. hope all is well with everyone...

1.
i saw three rainbows
in tandem but separate
might have been a dream

2.
a whiskered cow sits
in my shadow hot, waiting--
for reason to purr

Rob on paragraph 3:

Alexis, this one reminds me of my favorite Wordsworth anecdote, that he originally wrote “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” as “I Wandered Lonely as a Cow,” but his sister Dorothy made him change it. I have a hard time believing it’s true, but I so badly want it be…

In any case, I love that Dorothy hasn’t made you change it to “cat” yet!

alexis on paragraph 3:

whatever the reason for the comparison, i’m going to take it as a good thing :)! i am NOT changing it to cat, though, of course, she is black/white spotted feline…
