Placid pool like glass
reflecting birds’ migration.
Autumn sky at dusk.

My favorite....I've been trying to position myself to take a photograph similar to this, but no luck on the shot I want . . . yet (but now this I carry in my mind for clarification.)

Houston is filled with treasures...
and one of them is you.

I have reasons to visit there someday...
this will be on my list of "to do's".

When a haiku is done according to form there is not a painting that can compare.  Nicely done.

Mysteria, that was one very sweet thing to say and gives me much encouragement to keep writing.  My poor muse has been gone for quite some time, and I find haiku is about all I can write for now.   ...jo

What timing. *S* I've been thinking a lot about a friend whose birthday comes next week... her memorial was at that chapel. And your words paint such a picture I don't need to see the photo to see the pool. *S*

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, I can envision this most picturesque reflection on the serenity of the waters surface as a little fish suddenly comes kissing the suns rays, yay! (angel friendship hugs) Yay, I love this, dearest friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jo, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
