Yes - and how big is the box? And what is it made of - cardboard, wood? I must know these things. I lose sleep with not knowing them. Do you too?!
And \'basically\' as everyone says, \'at this moment in time\', etc, etc - a fine write and pic Michael

That box may get buried within the conformity of life.
Good write Michael.

The story I imagine is a couple locked in argument behind the closed doors of a quiet village. Both stubborn as mules, trying to wound the other and not wanting to back down or show weakness. However the \'mislead\' and \'wounds\' raise intriguing questions and I\'m starting to wonder. I guess there\'s no right answer but it shows the power of a few well written words to stimulate the imagination. I could learn a lot from this.

I like the village picture. Quite different from the villages in america. Also like the new poetic form. It\'s very different but unique, well done!

Good write Michael and an interesting form of words.
Like the artwork, the notice board is quite typical of an English country town/village and is well displayed here. What time is the Village Fete?

I love the watercolor, if that is what it is! Robert Kelly, not so much. As in most constrained, rigidly structured poetry, it just doesn\'t speak to me. You did, however, convey his style quite well in these, Michael. Congratulations on tackling the challenge successfully!

THANKS MICHAEL ~ I am a LUNETIC and have used them in the past. As a tribute to you I may publish a \"Clutch of Lunes\" later today ! A single LUNE always strikes me as Poetic Minimalism ! I take you point about the niggling constraints of HAIKU ! I have been on other sites where they took HAIKU much more seriously and if one poste one that was NOT 575 or rhymed or not about Nature or Seasons etc then you where castigated ~ which is very painful ! I have always been interested in clouds and have lectured on them (CLOUD 7 !). Love the painting ~ very LUNE ! 5 Buildings ~ 3 Fields ~ 5 Trees ! Yours BRIAN

Never heard of lunes but I have now and will have to try them, I write haiku and senryu but these obviously allow a bit more freedom.
The last one speaks to me and my love of music.

I like the simple but powerful imagery. Certainly summers I can relate to especially that smell of wild garlic.

Michael, the painting is incredible. This is exactly how we \'non-English\' picture the English country side. And the poem is not far behind the painting! Kudos!
