mocking this saddened heart

We splashed in puddles, danced in rain,
and laughed; though soaking wet, we knew
that come what may, each day's to live -
so seize the day, and don't be blue!

She gazed into the rabbit hole
And screamed as severed hands appeared,
They twitched and grabbed and pulled her down;
The hands were kinder than she’d feared,
And helped her trim her hair and beard.

For Deb’s Dream contest (inspired by the first picture)...

What fish feel,
birds feel, I don't know--
the year ending.
~Basho
Translated by Robert Hass

what does the fish feel
as it jumps upstream
into the bear's open jaw

winter rain
the river overflows it's bank
as the new year begins

.
Out on the early morning porch
As dawn cracks on the horizon
Waiting inspiration for which ensearch
Look upon grass and weeds not gazon

Then rising sun touches earth
Crack of light that wakes cooing birds
At that moment a poem's birth
Page fills_ inspired poetic words
