Midnitesun ~~ These are wonderful. I especially love the moose! I grew up in NH and have never seen a moose; before I leave this earth, I am bound and determined to see one. I'll probably have to camp out in the winter woods! Hugs, Marti Dwelling on the negative simply |

Moose are cool. They have such incredibly long legs...they make me jealous, as I'm only 5'3"! Yes, you must see a moose, and an arctic fox. |

Yes, Jason, this form IS the imagery of nature. Thanks for reading. Now maybe go try some haikus and senryus, and maybe a tanka or two. |

rk, moose are huge, taller than horses yes, Wind, I had them in my yard the last six years in Alaska, but now that I've moved to the Denver area I only see the two-legged kind LOL |

definitely feeling like spring coming on. the morning window was it just wishful thinking or birds returning? [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (03-05-2003 06:53 AM).] |

I love these, Kacy. As I've told you before, probably, I love Haikus and senryus. What is the syllable count for Tankas? Hugs, Ethel |

Yes ... Spring is close! Feelings of warmth and life are in the air. We have a yearling outside of my hometown in a small swamp in the mountains .... a beautiful sight seeing it standing close to Mom. Makes life liveable. Good work!! (live and kicking from Nashville) |
