h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Oh what a beautiful moment in time...
Let me rest here a moment...
Drink in the atmosphere...
Thus is where I would like to be...
Forever between the here and now..

Content.. At Peace..

SNOWFLAKES
By Fowler (Alundra) (Codeslinger) (Teflon Billy)
The gentle snow falls
slow and graceful it drops down.
It touches my lips.

The white snow falls still.
It chills and invigorates me.
It dances upon the ground.

I walk through the snow.
My feet plough up little hills,
mounds of cold, white silk.

THIS IS A HAIKU, RATHER THAN ANYTHING ELSE

White whirling bubbles
Dark nectar slides into cup
Your latté is done

~Irving, who isn't exactly Basho

Mmm... I can taste it now...

"'Twas brillig, and the slithey toves
Did gire and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogroves
And the momeraths, outgrabe."
~Jabberwocky

There was a young lady from Venus...

DATA... STNG...

*looks askance at Irv as she arrives with notebook and stylus*
Bonne idée, Irv!
*Wanders down toward brook, opens notebook, begins painting with stylus*

Merci, Lil. Qu'est-ce que tu design? I think. My spelling in french is awful sometimes... even worse than in English. That should translate:

Thanks, Lil. What are you drawing?

~Irving

*Resumes chess game*

*climbs the tree next to Greebo's and sits on limb, enjoying the air*

~Irving

~Greebo grins at Mr Washington...~ Nice up here isn't it... ~Greebo throws another acorn at the chess game... and then quickly looks at Irving...~

THAT WAS EXTREMILY NAUGHTY OF YOU MR WASHINGTON!!!!

~Greebo assumes innocent expression... and boy is she good at it...~

~What a cute cat me hear's you all say... and what a bad little boy that Irving Washington is...~

TEE... HEE!!!!!

*cranes neck to look up at Irv*
I'm studying how to draw water. water moving, water meeting stones. water reflecting sky. water rippling ....
*sips tea, goes back to drawing*

*ducks accusation*

That acorn must have dropped on it's own!

I wish I could draw water decently. In fact, I wish I could draw decently.

~Irving

I've updated the Aroma page! Have a look

~Irving

Will do...

is it really spring?

It is in Tucson. Warm air. Flowers in bloom. Are you named after the city or the bird?

~Irving

The bird, as the bird is a one of the kind and totaly perfect we seem quite similar.
But a male bird

See, being born and raised in Phoenix, Az, the city was the first to come into my mind, and I almost assumed that you were from Arizona yourself. There was a book -- an old, possibly out of print book -- called "David and the Phoenix". Ever read it?
