“WHAT IS HAIKU”
sorenbarrett said:
I bow to you in a task of teaching haiku in haiku most masterful. As I have searched in the past there seem many variations such as senryu and the need for a cutting word (kireji) and nature reference (kigo) in the traditional 17 syllable haiku. The difficulty and masterful completion of what you accomplished in this work deserves a fave.

This poem describes a ritual no longer practiced but in the mind and nostalgia flows back from a time that was simpler, safer and more natural. A most lovely write that strikes at the hearts of older readers.

Enduring Love.
sorenbarrett said:
Love ties strong bonds that keep a person captive. Abuse is not to be tolerated it weakens the soul. And herin lies the dilema. Love or self esteem which should be stronger? A most powerful poem

Barry Island – A Chapel Outing. (1955)
Cheeky Missy said:
Gorgeously detailed with imagery until it\'s exquisite, rendered almost casually with a delicate yet determined poignancy, how very beautiful this is! Taken aback by its form, then gradually lost in a glorious adventure, I\'m swept away happily. Thank you very much for sharing!
