This is the blue bird That is the persimmon tree And the waving sea Sun is in her morning bath With a pink rose and green tea What is that yonder? Oh, It’s my dream |

Bao~ And your 'dream' is lovely too~ Couldn't help but notice the reference to the Persimmon Tree ... Bill and I have about 30 of them growing on our land~ I make a really GOOD Persimmon Cake~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! And I can't recall if I have tasted persimmon (I don't think I even spelled it right, huh?) Sometimes simplicity is just the right note! Enjoyed. |

I wondered about "persimmon" and I found out that we call it "khaki or loto" and I love it. Thirty, dear Marge, wow! And I love your poem, dear Drauntz. The essentials of a dream of peace, glimpses of Nature in harmony. Beautiful. Love, Margherita |

Persimmons are a traditonal fruit at Japanese holiday get-togethers, at least in California, my original home state. Sigh, bluebirds and the sea....I miss that beautiful sea scenery! I truly enjoyed the aromatic and tasty visual imagery in this sweet write! |

I really like this Drauntz. My only suggestion would be to maybe re-think the title but that's just me. Good work! Cheers - Ed Head Cheese & Chicken Feet |
