The Return of the Haiku Bear

You may recall, Dear Reader, that a post last November introduced a very small bear who goes by the name of M. Edward Bear. Well, M. Bear and I recently embarked on an expedition on the Wild Pacific Trail, and we now wish to share the fruits of our labour. You may also recall that M. Bear was very fond of Haiku, and thus he has contributed verse to some of the images.

Wave in the harbour

The sky singing from the stars

Whispers of the tide

This one is not a 'Where's Waldo' shot, so don't bother looking for bears, we just both liked it, so there you are!

Ferns in the valley

They are crying for the night

You are the forest

Egads! Moderately alarmed here... No time for haikus!

Leaf in the clearing

I was moving with the wind

Awakening you

The Salal blossoms

Shift gracefully like the dawn

Spirit of the past

The mountain peak laughed

The woods drifting in the air

The scent of the sea

Paintbrush blossom

Trembled warmly in the sun

The light on the earth

Gray dawn near the rocks

Fondly glowing to the woods

I was the ocean

Waves in the ocean

Floating away from the past

I know where we are

Another shot with no bear, just a profusion of Giant Horsetails.
For those with enquiring minds, this little bear was made by Linda, a dear and close friend of my wife, Marcelle. It is about an inch-and-a-half tall and has articulated limbs and head. It is an absolute marvel of intricate sewing and, as you can plainly see, is simply adorable.
For those with minds that enquire yet further, the haiku is based on an iOS app called 'Haiku Time'. It generates haiku that can be used as is, or modified as you wish to better suit the situation. What exciting times we live in!
Cheers!
