Grumpy Grizzly

hey, it is so interesting to see this one entered in one of my contests a long time ago. Well I came way back here to ask you something. My partner in the Halloween contest is worried that you are going to close it very soon, because your blog said this week or something like that? I told her you would have to keep it open until it got 35 entries, right? So we have until then? Please let me know. She wants me to post mine soon but I am holding off a wee bit longer. Thanks, Andrea

nice peace here my friend

Diane,I enjoyed the way the grizzly's open yawning mouth reminded me of a tree trunk's hollow opening. Congrats on your number 8 win. LUv, Andrea

I love this haiku. many congratulations for this win.

And let me today call this poet out of hibernation now ... too many days have missed her charm of words, her subtle wit, and her sweet poetry. Above all I miss you as friend to read and comment on my poetry again. Thanks always

Got a laugh this Sunday morning well almost noon. Good luck in the contest. Thank you for all your comments it is appreciated a lot. God Bless Phyl

Diane, a sweet entry for Andrea's contest ;) had a giggle at Dave's comment! Best of luck to you for the contest and enjoy your weekend ;)

What a WONDEFUL tribute - comparing me to a big old sleepy, grumpy grizzly bear. What I do best is hibernate. (this is most of the time, that is when I'm not grumping around the house) Luck in the contest. If Andrea doesn't give you first place, I shall chew, chew, chew on her. Love, Dave

Your haiku is very sweet. I can image the 'Grumpy Grizzly' yawning... And had to smile while reading your note:) Emilia

My wife always said she wished to be a grizzly so she can hibernate all winter. I said to her I would catch her and have her dancing at the end of a rope in a circus. Love your poem. More please

What an outstanding way to enjoy a day. I am so happy to be able to read the excellent poetry here at PoetrySoup today. Hope you are enjoying your day and finding much inspiration along the way Diane. The best to you in the contest. Love, Carol
