White foam crests green wave.
Blossoming umbrella tree
awash in sharp breeze.

Another raindrop
and the stream will overflow
into the meadow...

Nan darling heart in this delight you have excelled your usual high standard normally your writing shines, in this one poem you have written incandescence. I cannot praise this too highly. This is exquisite writing I love it utterly utterly. Truly beautiful, I can’t do brevity, or I can but its simply not successful, this however is utterly utterly perfect. Excellent writing I love it utterly utterly love it

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire

As the rains falling
Talk about weeping willows
Mimosas swaying



(smiles) YAY!!! Oh my gosh, this is a beautiful haiku, sweet friend, I believe I have seen visions like this before and they are always so amazing and miraculous! (kiss on cheek) Beautiful, sweet friend, I LOVE IT, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Nancy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Neeraja, Thank you so much, for reading and for letting me know you liked it.

Marsha, but do you like it?

Noah, What a pretty haiku you wrote in response! I love the way haikus get more haikus, don't you?

Ah, dear friend, makes me long for the view from your back porch. I hope the move and the summer is finding you content and happy
Loved the haiku by the way!

Nan,
it's a beautiful haiku but I'm suddenly reminded I have to put my washing on the line.

I love haikus and this is perfect.  A sea of green, this is clever.  *s*
