A bulldozer
at dusk...the track's mud
starts to freeze.
About Masago
- Masago
- Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
- From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

A D9 Cat
at dusk...the track's mud
starts to freeze.
Link with 936: Cat.
[As a young man I worked on the Trans-Canada pipeline near Kenora, Ontario. I was a swamper for a D9 Caterpillar and my job was to grease the bulldozer two or three times a day and to perform other odd jobs to keep it running efficiently. One of the most important jobs was to thoroughly clean the tracks of mud at the end of the day. If this task was ever neglected then the tracks would freeze solid overnight and the job boss would not be in a happy camper the next morning.]
I'm sure glad you explained this one -- I was trying to see a real cat leaving mud! :)
nice one vaughn (yes it seems juhani is tikkis)

Frozen in its tracks. Amazing how nature rules even the powerful CAT. The fireplace is propane, $300.00 at any local Home Depot.
you've had a hard life
sounds good though
cheers
thanks for explaining this one. i would otherwise have no idea what it is about
Andrew: :-) I suppose "bulldozer" would be clearer.
John: Thanks for the kind words and the info about Tikkis.
Pat: Yes, so true. I like your "D9 CAT" as opposed to "D9 Cat". Still, it seems weird to have a fireplace in a boat (I such a land lubber).
Floots: It's actually not been so bad. Thanks.
Polona: Okay, with all the confusion I think I better revise this one. It will make the link with "cat" a little subtle but, oh well... :-)
The mighty nature!. Andrew's comment made laugh out loud!:)
Borut: Indeed. :-)
