One Single Impression: Wassail

SandyCarlson April 07, 2012



From February 12, 2012

Dive in, drink up
The history of the world--
Impassive like you--
Passes through you 
And becomes you 
With equanimity. 

Lunch is a sacred rite 
The silence of which 
Is punctuated by your 
Full immersion 
And the clicks of my camera. 

You eat for two.

    I wondered what people would do with Wassail. Of course I always like to drink it. ;) Have a great weekend clicking away.

    For me coming for the other side of the word to combine wassail with another prompt for a haiku was a great challenge.. but then..I find you having done a great job with it.. Thanks Sandy.. would love you to visit and have a look how I have handled..
