the 12 given words:
wind sky rising many farm usual 
find grass freak wrap twice stars 

the wild winds of change
opening up the sky painfully
anger in check not rising despite the pain
not wanting to upset the many

life on the farm goes on as usual
one may find in the grass a freak
thumbing its nose so casual
that wraps it up but not imposing the big stick

some little critters can be playful
having met twice one is considered a friend
stars in the making being so artful
human nature is not easy to understand

  2. Human nature sure isn't easy indeed. Have to watch some of those critters in the grass.

  4. You have sketched a scene - that plays to the title of the piece, brilliantly - and infused it with nuance that culminates in the closing line. Lovely job on this, Hank!

  5. Just ignore that one thumbing critter and make friends with the playful ones - go after the people of joy not anger.

  6. I suppose you can infuse mystery and adventure into the nature of human, Well of course depending on your mood. I enjoyed this clever little debate on dealing with change

    Happy Sunday Hank

  7. Making a friend with a critter sounds like fantastic fairy tale fun. Artful stars shining. Last line, so true.

  8. I like the playfulness, and even a sweetness in the mood.

  9. The most unpredicatable of creatures. I would steer clear of them if I could, but then I looked in a mirror and I had been changed into one of them! That just goes to show how bad they are.
