The sheer exuberance we unconsciously revert to from back in our childhood.
Uncomplicated, and lovely.
I love this! Made me laugh. So true.
A great little pause for thought!
"savor every moment" or "now that I'm out here, what do I do?"… all in the larger context of so many possibilities!
Thank you, Ingrid, Sheila, and Mark for taking the time to comment on this haiku. I'm delighted you felt the exhuberance and humour and that it gave you pause for thought.
