topsy turvy – – haibun

Posted on Categories Poetry

In May, just days ago it seems, I felt summer on my skin, inhaled its warm scents and, responding to familiar cues, started pulling out summer clothes. Now early June feels like spring again. What a topsy turvy time this is…after winter before summer.

Published by Janice

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
