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'.

1034. Building Dreams
Sand box...
we build a new city
in a day.
1033: Pretend.
[When building a dream seemed so easy...]
Never had a sandbox, but I used to build sandcastles at our cottage in the summers. :)
I love so much your poem, dear Vaughn! The magic sand box... To build in the world of dreams - could we live without that?
except for that cat
if only everything was this easy!
i love this one
it's a memory
but
it also says so much about our hopes ambitions and mortality
good one vaughn
john
Vaughan...
Have been meaning to stop by and read your poetry. Really enjoyed what I read here.
I suppose you could say that your sandbox is also filled with "masago."
Out on an island in the middle of Lake Lanier and have discovered several of those 1 day wonder towns.
Aurora: Sandcastles are lots of fun, love to build them too. :-)
Dana-Maria: Thank you! We all live (or should I say play) in a magic sand box of sorts.
Pamela: Right, there's always a spoiling force. ;-)
Andrew: If only.
Floots: Thanks. Some of us play a little harder. :-)
John: Thanks.
Don: Thanks for coming by...and pointing out the Masago sand box connection.
Pat: ...and they eventually fade as do some of our dreams.
Well, I was more into building sand tunnels at that time...!?:)
Borut: Sand tunnels? Wow, sounds dangerous...or were there for your hand to go through?
Polona: Thanks.
