I posted it, but it disappeared. Hmmm? What a loss! I copied the text received in my email and will reproduce it here.<br /><br />Reading your haikus and the comments following it, I smile and tell myself "The opening of a New Year brings us the opening of a new jar filled with the sweetness of words and beautiful images!"<br /><br />And then, feeling the enthusiasm the thought brings to me, I find the words of ee cummings sneak back from their hiding place in my memories...<br /><br />"I will take the sun in my mouth<br />and leap into the air<br />Alive<br />with closed eyes"...<br /><br />Oh, I do believe it shall be a wondrous New Year and that jar filled with sweetness of words and images shall prove to be a cornucopia, refilling itself the more we pull gifts from its magic!anitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17042584896640034932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362850992990224937.post-66773188336593557502016-01-18T21:18:55.363-08:002016-01-18T21:18:55.363-08:00Joseph,

But of course you would, you are a great musician and understand these small simplicities.<br /><br />I am so happy to hear of your trip to Australia. And you're right, it sounds like a place I would enjoy. I appreciate you story of the cockatoos. How exciting, and to escape the winter cold as well.<br /><br />Happy travels Dear Jonathan, and miles of smiles to you,<br /><br />~ Aneet<br />anitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17042584896640034932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362850992990224937.post-20919872059607308872016-01-18T11:12:44.004-08:002016-01-18T11:12:44.004-08:00Happy New Year Aneet!

Very calming scene.....<br /><br />Thank goodness winter for me will be over in 2 weeks as I head to Sydney Australia to see family once again. This will be my 5th trip over there. Aneet you would love it! The wildlife there is truly amazing. When I was there 2 years ago, everytime I would attempt to go to bed, these obnoxious cockatoos would appesr right outside my window and make sure to keep me up. Hopefully this time they won't have it in for me. LOL<br /><br />Best to you always......Jonathan <br /><br />Jonathan Chesternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362850992990224937.post-13166613311264210342016-01-15T22:37:28.821-08:002016-01-15T22:37:28.821-08:00Geo,
