If you can’t find the centaur,
Look for the teapot.

“If you are cold, tea will warm you. If you are too heated, it will cool you. If you are depressed, it will cheer you. If you are excited, it will calm you.” - Gladstone, 1865

Great haiku Rosie! I’ll just look for the Great Teapot in the Sky from now on.

The ancients had better imaginations, I guess. I’ve never seen the centaur or the teapot, myself. I’m spot-on for the Big Dipper, though. Thanks, Rosie.

When I saw this post on the front page I thought it meant there was a teapot hidden somewhere in Van Gogh’s painting. Excellent haiku!
