March Madness

march madness
                  snow all melted
                        frosted trees raped by the sun

             Dave Austin

Ah Daver, this poem has made me look into the beyond.... Alice and March Hare: Quotes: Alice in Wonderland March Hare: ?Then you should say what you mean. Alice: I do; at least - at least I mean what I say -- that's the same thing, you know. Hatter: Not the same thing a bit! Why, you might just as well say that, 'I see what I eat' is the same as 'I eat what I see'! March Hare: You might just as well say, that "I like what I get" is the same thing as "I get what I like"! The Dormouse: You might just as well say, that "I breathe when I sleep" is the same thing as "I sleep when I breathe"!

Surely the trees were finding those cold frosted suits had become burdensome? You have mastered the Haiku, which is a feat in itself! Love the image portrayed here.:) Keep well, love, Mikki
