HAIBUN





She loves this song
She will never know
a love like this
But likes to believe it exists

For her it will always belong in the fantasy box
A pile of impossible dreams she likes to visit sometimes
Rummages about in
Tries them on for size
Slow dancing with a pottlepot
Escape for a moment
Before she unpacks yet another box
Puts on another load of laundry
And turns back into a pumpkin


elusive dreams
caught up in a fantasy
just for a moment

Heeding Haiku with Chevrefeuille
Fantasy Theme

  2. A fantasy box - we love that idea.. perhaps it doesn't matter why as long as it brings some lightness

    1. Remove the apron and a pumpkin can be transformed into a panzer princess:)

  7. What a entrancing post. Cosmo I see was devastated at the news but then realised that pumpkins are good too.

    1. Cosmo is very versatile and flexible....pumpkins to panzer division princesses are his bag... as long as they are gorgeous and attached to a big brain:)
