In response to CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI: Carpe Diem #989 Oak …
Gifts from an Old Oak
Acorn stew tonight?
No, let them feed squirrels or
grow to be old oaks.
I had nothing in mind for this particular CDHK episode, but then I read the fine contribution by Dancing Echoes, had a sudden inspiration, and was astonished to see that the episode was still open. Thank U, Dancing Echoes.

Inspiration can be found in the least likely places. I enjoyed the flow and the simplicity in the imagery. Very temporal and satisfying.

Philosophical and practical at the same time. Liked it a lot.

It’s funny to think that your decision not to have acorn stew might be of such great consequence to generations of grateful squirrels.

They may even forgive me for making the bird feeder so hard to reach.
