Hello, Dear Ida! I appreciate the skill of a good 'haikuist' to impart so much with an economy of words. I am pleased that you enjoyed my attempt.

Haiku hugs,

Greetings from my continent to yours! I enjoyed your "Empty Nest" haiku so much, that I thought I'd post one of my own! I'm so glad that you liked mine as well!

Earth Angel,

This reminds me of the old gas street lights we had all over here in Philadelphia up until thirty years ago.

Now there are still some in what we call "Olde City".

Boggy:

What a pleasant walk it must be to walk "Olde City" in Philadelphia during a soft, evening snowfall.
