Seymour~ Lamenting pen's ink Pours out this morning's mourning Let's join hands in love~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Earth Angel Could I ask for anything more. Nancy, It is just the wake I woke.  Marge, Those dear hands I love Besides the garden wall, I Love them most of all. |

trees of the forest bow to the breezes blowing dirge of odor brought Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Mr. T, you never cease to put the wonder back into my heart  Sad is not always bad, else how could we know when we are happy? A lovely haiku from you makes my day Caroline He who wants a rose must respect the thorn. |

This reminds me of why I should never attempt haiku... you are just too good at them Seymour! I am jealous... I think I shall have to go and sulk now!  |

Sy, Not as good, just a try at Haiku which I really try to avoid ... every chance I get   Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Hi, Seymour. I'm not sure that I completely understand...perhaps this has nautical terms in it? Anyhow, I liked the mindful twists in your imagery. Great work!

John, The only double meaning in the haiku is the word wake. One meaning is to wake up and the other is to join in the wake of the dirge in the forest. |
