Sweet and Bitter Stuff of Wonder

1. Haiku Heights – Possible
A little duckling
Even in solitude
Still learns all his ways.
Still learning his ways
The tiger cub will not roar
When waiting for lunch.
When waiting for lunch
A baby will look at you
Ready to speak up.
Ready to speak up
We choose our own silences
Possible to fail.

Poetic Asides said: Take a song title and write a poem around it. Or pretty much that, in slightly different words. Well, here it is:
CALIFORNIA DREAMING (The Mamas and the Papas, 1965)
*
Is it possible I dream of California?
Never seen it, never will.
And that’s, in fact,
what’s in a dream.
