Mask softly repeats over
Research, but hang loose

very contemplative haiku ~ ‘research, but hang loose’ says a lot ~ thanks, namaste, ^_^
May 13, 2012 @ 18:59:10
Yes, I will be doing quite a bit of contemplating this summer; thanks! 🙂
May 12, 2012 @ 23:16:05
Hard to research and hang loose at the same time… but it is in fact a sensible thing to do 😉
May 13, 2012 @ 19:01:25
At times they seem to be completely contradictory, but they really are compatible! 🙂

Very thought ful haiku. The last few words made me smile.
May 14, 2012 @ 13:57:16
Thanks! Yes, “hang loose” is not something I thought I would ever encounter in a haiku, much less write myself, but there it is 🙂
May 14, 2012 @ 11:49:09
