Peep Tanka by Allan HaslindsLifelessly yellow.
Herald of fertile spring days,
bird of confection.
Soft sweet heads ready to smush
smiling faces doomed to die. 04/20/2003 Author's Note: I can't help myself. They're just so... smushable. Happy spring holidays, everyone.

| Posted by Anne Engelen on 04/23/03 at 05:39 AM okay, you got me curious now! What are peeps?? It sure wasn't to found in my dictionnary |
| Posted by Maryellen Lebeda-Parra on 04/23/03 at 07:29 PM bizarre, upon first read ... i didn't even associate the poem with "peeps" ... and was not sure what it was about. guess I just don't think about peeps or holidays all that much really =) then i read anne's comment about what a peep is ... and i thought to myself ... what the hell is this about. and read further comments ... tying the dream together. and now I understand the poem. very interesting read. |

| Posted by Traci Mabats on 08/25/03 at 03:36 PM This was interesting. I didnt quite get what you were talking about at first either, I prefer the chocolate bunnies myself. |
