Beautiful Haiku Wendy. And I love that it is 5-7-5. It is the only Haiku I can embrace as Haiku. I am just being honest. I have been writing Haiku for plus years, and cannot embrace the departure from the original. I know I am the odd man out where this is concerned. Guess I am old school.
❀ Margie, I like 5-7-5 best because it’s what I learned first, and it’s what most people expect. But I do appreciate the freedom to depart from it when needed; however, it tends to feel like I cheated when I do. 😉
oops, 12 plus years, LOL!
I recently had a birthday, and I’d spent the previous six months thinking I was a year younger than I was. It’s how we feel that counts. ❀
Lovely verse and sketch, Wendy! 🙂
Thank you, dear Iris. ❀
My pleasure, Wendy 🙂 ❤
