Enthralled with bonsai, mini-trees and forests
nested in a pot, abounding with illusion.
Engrossed by terrariums, diminutive landscapes
encased in glass, their sealed environs.
Enamored with haiku, miniscule poems
defined by form, rife with meaning.
Enchanted by alpine gardens, tiny meadows
perched on man-made mountains, wonderous patches of nature.
Mesmerized by netsuki, captivating carvings
functioned once as toggles for keeping boxes shut.
Overcome by suiseki, compact scenery in the rock
perched on a custom rosewood stand.
Envious of Alice who, after tumbling down the hole,
found a pill that enabled her to shrink.
