every dark nook
needs a sign that says:
Gnome Wanted

Notes: Happy Poetry Friday and thanks to Margaret Simon for hosting! Hope you had a lovely Mother’s Day, made someone else’s Mother’s Day lovely, or both! I lit a candle for my mother, ate a delicious brunch made by my sleepy tots, and phoned my mother-in-law and step-mother.

I adore this, Brenda, love looking at interesting trees & imagining what could be. I have one picture that looks as if a bear is being ‘revealed’ (released?). This is wonderful!

Yes, a gnome definitely needs to move in. The idea of a sign is a good one (reminds me of Pooh’s “Mr Sanders” sign). 🙂

I think there may be a larger story here. Little wonderings are perfect for haiku.

Little posts are all I have time for now that I’m working full-time in addition to pursuing publication and mothering three kids. It’s exhausting trying to do it all.

There is something grand and insightful about trees, even after they are too old to send out leaves.

I love the idea of a “Gnome Wanted” sign. Once when walking in the woods, I actually did stumble upon a gargoyle tucked into a similar space. Someone had a sense of humor.

I love it. I wonder about the person who put the gargoyle there. 🙂
