One dreamed of becoming somebody. Another remained awake and became. (Found in a fortune cookie.)

The clock has just chimed, Reminding me that the day Is nearly over. Yet here I sit once again, Struggling to craft a poem.

Past my reflection, Beyond the mirrored surface, Lives another world, Linking all humanity, Understood mostly by fish.

Each year we travel, to see our friends up North and attend their event. Inside, ice dragon passes. Outside, sleet coats the wagon.

Inspiration comes from many different sources waterfall and woods hiding the ancient statues I long to return and play

Riding south to home Pass from Winter's wet weather Through many miles To Spring's sweet soaking showers If not dry, at least warmer

Errands completed, I took the road by the bay On my way back home. The tide was high and white with Blustery winds from the sea.

See the World below, Drift away Without effort, Take flight Into blue, Skies gilded Silver and white, Backlit by a Golden sun.

So far I have come in this challenge, yet today I almost forget. Must be so much cold weather after yesterday's warming.

Storm and Sun fight To dominate a spring day, With all their powers. When it includes a hail storm, Don't blame it on foxes.

Bright western sunsets, Face an empty patio. It does not take long, For our laughter to shatter The night sky into starlight.

He stood on the grass, Challenge gleaming in his eye As I came outside. Silly crow, I am nowhere Near your nest in that maple!

And then the next day, he did forget. What a rube. Must be driving snow. Nothing accumulates, and nothing gets posted either.

I arose today Before a sweetened sunrise And I rode the clouds To the Pacific Ocean Making faces at The Moon

The general retires Yet the daimyo does not lead Nor does he assign Soldiers without orders rest The borders seethe with turmoil

Oh caterpillar Without a care in the world Suspended from silk Caught like a children’s day kite Gliding on a spring-time breeze
