Your haiku reminded me of the previous one which I wrote as a short poem, long ago.
An evocative ku, Bill.; 1:20 PM
Bill said...: Thanks, Frank.

M, a hint of Yeats, one of the great poets of aging,
in your ku

John and Adelaide, thanks for sharing that.

A fine ku, Rita. That direct address is not the sort of thing I'd be likely to do, but you make it work. Do I detect the influence of Robert Wilson?; 4:31 PM
