“Learn the rules, so that you can break the rules” - Basho

on the vine-
industrious ants raze
the winemaker’s dream

seasonal cares
a late spring rain-
where are the blossoms

diminishing stars
on a moonlit night-
shakespeare in the park

midday sun-
the weathered barn
leans on its shadow

You know how, when you read something and out comes a completely involuntary gasp or sound of some kind, Lori? That's exactly what happened when I read that last verse... the barn leaning on its shadow... that's brilliant imagination... amazing expression! My other favorite was the first verse... very creative, peaceful bow to nature. All of it is just wonderful! katy xox.

Do ants get hungover?
Shakespeare in the park.
Must pop over and see that.
Very visual...
