Got to confess (haven’t been paying attention?) that I retreated to Google to find out what haibun was all about. The words ‘descriptive, sparse poetic imagery’ leaped out. You got that right – nature poetry accessible to me. Plus haiku with just the right message. Ta.

\'twas then I knew she was the girl for me...

firstly Raymond Blanc is one of the most charismatic chefs I have ever come across,
second, do not go to Michelin starred restaurants for a meal, it\'s to be treated as \'gastronomy experience\' (the \'parading\' Art of starving one\'s belly),
most importantly: congratulations, on your anniversary!

Oh, come now Michael - \'Less is more\' don\'t you know?
Me, I still recommend (my plebeian roots) baked beans on toast, lashings of tomato sauce and a cuppa tea.
BTW he didn\'t take the above dictum to heart when he named his cafe, did he?
Great abstract work there. A triptych really?

Like the French in your title, goes well with \'French\' food. Here is what you do if you want a \'hearty\' meal: Stop at a restaurant with lots of trucks outside. The food is usually good, lots of it, and not expensive!!!

the numbers on the \"check\" are longer than the portions on the plate. Yet we can\'t help ourselves, for the food is so darn good.
Do you think, they think, that if we had too much, they may loose a repeat customer?
Great color coordination

Firstly, you picture. It brought to mind the magician sawing up a lady into several parts, but when they were put together again .. well... there was a fly in the ointment (thoughts of that film \'the fly\' there).
Oh so true of modern snooty cuisine \'looks good, tastes good, where\'s the rest of it?\'

I have been to a place like that. The last company that I worked for did a Christmas \'do\' every year where we to a hotel one Friday before Christmas, had a meal, drank to odd half of shandy and stayed the night, all payed for by the company. One hotel we went to served the meal and on this large plate there was all the food in an area that had a bout a two inch circumference - fine dining was the expression - we were not impressed.
Good words Michael

your artwork had me thinking of a work I really like, titled \'the chasm of the Colorado\' by Thomas Moran (I think),
only yours is more like \'the chasm within a cloud\' or a little morosely: \'droplets of ichor, invading our prism of essence\',
my simpleton self, would title it as
\'a dance of pigment\'s, self-introductory waves\'...
my 2 cent$ worth, thankfully its free, lol

Great poetry painting a character picture. I feel like I\'m reading a classic piece i have known since childhood.
I think youve produced a real gem.

Been thinking for sometime that if, owing to covid restrictions you ran out of paints and perchance your poetic inspiration deserted you, you could set up a gourmet restaurant (with postal service...)
