Hmm, trees again? Okay...

The poplars in pose,
their spindle fingers reaching
to caress the sun.

Always a pleasure, Linda.

Mikey---I love it when you get in touch with the child within and express yourself this way. I also appreciate your more gothic style as well, but this style makes me feel better!

I love reading---and receiving!!!!---your poems!

Thank you, Linda. That's what my name means after all. b= black -- doomy, depressed, dark. squirrel = silly, carefree, playful, watchful.

ThisDiamond---Thank you! Get crackin'!---I look forward to reading your haikus!

(BTW, just in case you or any other readers don't know this, VAS was very helpful when she pointed out that one of my poems that I had posted as a haiku, was actually a senyru. They have the same format but haikus are on nature.)

Mike--I love your wit!

Sy--Thanks for dropping by! Pleased you enjoyed it.

Marti--Sounds like a plan Marti!--Wouldn't that be a lovely way to spend a morning, or an afternoon---or a week! Reading, writing, talking...by your poetry it's evident we like the same things!

Love, Light & Laughter to you all!
Linda

YAY!!! Oh my gosh, I can't think of a senryu at the time but I love this! (kiss on cheek) You paint nature so well as you truly are our earth angel, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
