Written by a bear of "very little brain"On monday, when the sun is hot I wonder to myself allot: "Now is it true, or is it not That what is which and which is what?" On tuesday, when it hails and snows, The feeling on me grows and grows That hardly anybody knows, If those are these or these are those. On wednesday, when the sky is blue, And I have nothing else to do, I sometimes wonder if it's true That who is what and what is who. On thursday, when it starts to freeze, And hoar-frost twinkles on the trees, How very readily one sees That these are whose-but whose are these? On Friday- *Unfinished

I read this enchanting book many years ago, as well as the te of piglet. I even painted a simple watercolour of the cover, like pictured here. I just adored it.I'd love to reread. IP: Logged |

To know the Way, We go the Way; We do the Way The way we do The things we do. It's all there in front of you, But if you try too hard to see it, You'll only become Confused.I am me, And you are you, As you can see; But when you do The things that you can do, You will find the Way, And the Way will follow you. Pooh on the "Tao of Pooh"

It has been over a decade since I have read it, I was reminded of it while responding to a post from randall. IP: Logged |
