HAIKU SPRING (3)

I\'m not buying into this formula at all you know (poor excuse for my own sad failings at combining maths and verse really).
After all.... how do YOU feel about \'painting by numbers\'.

Shadows shortening
Spring succumbing to Summer
Supplanting seasons\'
Punxsutawney Phil (no relation) has indicated an early Spring. That and a few more Haikus will probably get the job done.
Sorry to hear about the flooding. Stay dry. Lovely poem. - Phil A.

Good Mitwok to You & Yours - Uncle Mike. Love the CRIMSON TULIP - it shouts S P R I N G ! Love the HAIKU - masters of Poetic minimalism ! *Wedding Blues* tomorrow - look out for it ! Brian & I would rather go to Gretna Green and be married over the anvil - but Noblese Oblige ! Both Brian (2nd floor flat) and I (Casa de Mama y Papa) are on Higher Ground so flood free. We pray your abode in MH will be a *Dry House*.
Blessings & Peace & Floodfree to You & Yours
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🤍🧡💛💚💙💜🤎

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Top of the Morning to You Uncle Mike ! Winter morphing into Spring is one of the finest seasonal Changes of the Year ! Such a contrast - everywhere I look Spring is bursting into vibrant (good word !) life. Love the TULIP and the HAIKU excellent ! Angela bought me 12 red Tulips in Bud for Valentines Day. They are amazing and in full bloom. Now (5th Day) the Heads have bent the Stems into amazing shapes. It looks like a DODECAPUS or a GORGONS HEAD with the tulips bending and writhing on the 12 points of the compass ! It would make an amazing painting - too Awesome to be True. But then Nature Always is !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
Love BRIAN & ANGELA 💛💛💛

Yes, i\'ll go along with your words today 100%.
All the better if it also transports each readers mind too. Preferably somewhere close to where the author\'s mind found itself.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
BRIAN HERE ~ Bon Soir Mon Oncle Mike ~ love the Goash ~ Jug o* Flowers. Thanks for the Grammar Lesson Mike - but it still need to be explained !
Three European Countries in the EU are:
France, Italy, and Spain (with Oxford Comma ~ second comma)
France, Italy and Spain (without Oxford comma)
Both sentences are acceptable because neither is ambiguous !
It is our Church Mens Breakfast tomorrow so another example:
MENU ~ Bacon and Eggs and Toast ~ This would suggest the
toast is served integral with the B & E and not for Marmalade !
MENU ~ Bacon and Eggs, and Toast ~ with the Oxford comma
indicates the toast is served separate and could be marmaladed ~ OK !
In this case the OXFORD COMMA avoids the ambiguity ~ OK
Thanks for raising ~ American English tends to use the Oxford Comma
which President Trump (USA UBER ALLES) calls the Harvard Comma !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛

A fine write and pic M. Is that the Cambridge comma at \'though (although), or am I just making that up?!
Does such a comma exist? Does Miss Berles know? Is she upset that letters or syllables are omitted, e.g . e\'en for even?!

When you\'re driving a car if no other cars are around why bother to indicate? Well I would say, apart from complying with the law, it\'s a good habit to get into. The same logic, I would argue, applies to the use of the Oxford comma.
