Forgotten



We watch soft shadows
from crescent fade to morning;
Prairies our bedrock.

Nice haiku, Bob, especially the middle line. That was a good call.

Thanks Jerry and Diana,

At first, when I was writing this, my mind was not in the toilet but on the moon and, Diana, I think you captured that part of my poem, thank you, and, Jerry, um, well, you know what you captured.  Anyways, thank you's so much to both!

I'm with Jerry on the middle line Bob.
And prairies are in my blood.
You Haiku with the best of them!

Thanks Lori and Bruce...

Lori, that your reply comes from the heart of a prairie girl from Kansas means that much more. Thank you.  

Bruce, ...and, your reply coming from one who extrudes imagery, WoW! Thanks so much!  

I appreciate you both!
