beautiful haiku..
Apr 05, 2012 @ 03:40:55
Thank you! Haven’t really tried out the shorter haiku form much… 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 07:08:46
Good, and funny too!
Apr 05, 2012 @ 09:56:12
Thanks! Glad you found the humor in it 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 07:32:22
Nice! I’m glad for “him” 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 09:57:17
Thank you! I’ll be sure to let “him” know 😉
Apr 05, 2012 @ 07:43:15
You should be happy.. there.. good one.
Apr 05, 2012 @ 10:25:37
Thanks! I am happy–and I hope you’re happy too 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 09:26:15
I like this one. Point well taken 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 10:29:15
Thank you! One of the advantages of using the 3-5-3 is that it forces you to be very direct and straight-shooting 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 10:22:37
Cute!
Apr 05, 2012 @ 10:29:40
Aw, thanks!
Apr 05, 2012 @ 20:43:55
I like the short 3-5-3 verse…well done. I also took it as an echo, yelling back ~

Thank you! I like that–I wanted it to elicit a response and an echoed yell is loud and clear! Your haiku are very thought-provoking 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 21:57:36
Very effectively done with the 3-5-3 form. Very nice direction!!
This is my Day 5 ~~ Waves Wash Over Me.
Apr 05, 2012 @ 23:29:17
Thanks! I enjoyed your healing waters as well 🙂
Apr 05, 2012 @ 23:58:47
Mother Nature is nice that way. She almost always waves back.
Apr 06, 2012 @ 20:17:03
Quite true– though there have been times she’s rained on my parade 😉

Great sense of shock scene in each line! Like jerky movement of stills in a film strip! Hilarious!

Haha, I like that description, like three pictures in a photobooth printout. Thanks! 🙂
