Friday Night Haiku Special: Aly of Worthy Cogitations - visit her for the Taya haiku

Night and Day
Swimming in stardust
Constellation night-diving
Gears of a clock turn;

My dreams are clouded
But there are visions of a
Future-past lifetime;

In the daylight hours,
I long to wear my tiny
Hat and watch the skies.

    At JanDa, I love the Tiny Trio leather book necklaces! Given how much I adore books, they're perfect wearable art pieces.

    Love Steampunk Earrings - Vintage Pocket Watch Parts - Ornate Etchings at JanDa Jewelry's Etsy. I absolutely LOVED the rings, but I have tiny fingers (not kidding) so they were all too big & I wouldn't be able to buy them. : (
