The Mount on the Moor.
a series of haikus.
[ZERO GRAVITY]
Barefoot, nowhere now
Jagged peace so lately found,
Half submerged in clouds.
[HEATHCLIFF]
To this place I'm bound,
Sediment and sacred ground
Soft uncanny world.
[LICHEN]
My love is stubborn.
As moss cleaves to these old stones
I cling fast to you.

Author's Notes: I rediscovered my 1980's poetry magnets box and in it were two poems I find compelling. I recall having challenged myself to create two poems using the same set of words. These two poem are what spilled out. Which one resonates more with you, version A or B? Leave it in Comments. I'd love to know your thoughts!

Before Sylvester the Cat, there was Sylvester the Dog
Sylvester was a Merrie Melodies canine Sylvester, the Cat, is a beloved Looney Tunes character who debuted in March 1947 in the animated short Life with Feathers. The iconic Mel Blanc once said that he enjoyed voicing Sylvester, one of his favorite characters. The cartoon short that was near and dear to Blanc's heart was Bird's Anonymous which starred the popular cat.
