Rhinos yawn because We can. What yawns accomplish is a mystery.
Yawns are sort of fun, so that’s a good thing.

In case you didn’t know…
Today Your Inner Rhino applauds the remarkable work of Harry Clarke (b.1889). Not only was he a gifted Irish illustrator, but he was also a prolific designer of stained glass windows. Much of his work can seem gloomy, but it is undeniably ravishing.
Rhinos love stained glass. We like to see the sunlight pouring through the images.
It’s one reason you may have noticed Us in church, when the weather is fair.
On our sleeve
Sending all Your Inner Rhino Readers a token of our affectionate regard…
the Valentine studio
Making Valentines is demanding; We go through a lot of red crayons as We scribble. We don’t begrudge the labor, but the effort makes our crayon supplies lop-sided.
Fortunately, here comes March, when We use up the green crayons for St. Patrick’s Day… and so on and so forth.
Rhinos like to look on the Bright Side.
One to a Customer
An intriguing phenomenon is that each Rhino gets a Here to work with, usually accompanied by a Now.
Everywhere We look there are lots of Theres, near and far. Whatever they have to recommend them, those Theres aren’t Here. That is how We tell them apart.
A Rhino just sashays up to a There, and Presto, it’s a Here.
R Quintessence
From a Rhino POV, We can only be truly known from the symphony of scents, the condensation of qualities, the cataract of nose-seducers We exude. The dimensions of the Experience are incalculable.
Nature has been extremely generous with Rhinos.
This Natural Scentential may make Us a wee bit smug, but can you wonder?
Clarification
Mr. Dickens, Part 2
Charles Dickens’ short novel, “A Christmas Carol” (1843), centers on a sour grape named Scrooge. When faced with nonsense or good cheer, Scrooge’s response is, “Bah, Humbug!”
This phrase may be coming back into style, given all the nonsense Rhinos hear around Us.
Bah, Humbug!… very useful.
Please, Sir…
Mr. Charles Dickens (b.1812) was a mega-star Victorian author. His stories are complex and his cast of characters is astoundingly rich. His work has great dramatic flair.
Rhinos are interested in his focus on the underprivileged and vulnerable, demanding that these folk need support. Mr. Dickens was influential in raising public consciousness, and that is always time and effort well spent.
Rhinos all owe him, and gladly grant him, our Thanks.
Game well played
Perhaps Rhinos do not come in first every time. Still, We give it everything We have, and then accept the consequences.
As gracefully as possible.
