sound of solitude

beside the wood's edge
skippingthrough clear water
sounds of river’s flow

I seem to remember something called clear water . . . Oh, now I recall, Clearwater Revival . . . Loved your haiku, but then I always do, you have the knack for this particular form.

Now some nice misty lilacs leaning over the clear, running waters would add to the scene nicely. Mind you, the poem and photo are perfect as they stand!
Ah! The peaceful solitude of communing with Nature... Nicely done, Marti!

Love you!

JerryPat2 ... LOL! I remember that song! Anyway, thank you for your very kind reply. I love writing haikus and usually can find or take a picture to go with whatever I write.

My dear sweet Linda Lou, I apologize for not returning your email. Please know I am so excited and thrilled for you that you are home and on the mend.

I missed you so much and missed reading your beautiful poetry.

I would love some lilacs also but I don't think they like the cold and snow!!

love you, Marti

Kat, thank you! One day soon, hopefully it will look like this again. Sooo much snow this year and I am really ready for spring and summer.
