Bliss by Harry Bliss for August 02, 2024

That tree is fairly straight. Must be an expert.

Now, can you hold that pose for 120 years?

Not bad … yet … it’s nothing compared to the real thing.

I wonder what Joyce Kilmer would have to say about that. The last two lines of her poem give us a hint:

Poems are made by fools like me,

But only God can make a tree.

Yoga “Tree pose”

Time, then, to make like a tree & …

Who goes there?

Ooooooooommmmmmm

Now can you do it with your eyes closed?

I think that I shall never hear

A poem lovely as a beer.

A big tall beer with lots of foam

Just like the ones we had at home.

Poems are made by fools, I hear

But only Schlitz can make a beer.

Is the yoga mat there to prevent him from taking root?
