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.

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.

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

I loved them both. I wish Tigger had a version.

You will have to read it I gave popular quotes from the book, but anymore would be giving things away I feel. Its not mine.

Glad that it interested you, maybe it will lead to an exciting adventure!

Who knows

Looking forward to the new Pooh movie. Those movies are always filled with wisdom and star signs.
