Very nice! My first thought was that it read like a translation from ink characters. Beaucoup Haiku! Lori  |

That is a strange thing to say about it, but I'm glad you "found" yourself to the point you realized what it was. Heh.Heh Thanks, Lori, very good to see you. ~*~ A man can fail many times, but he isn't a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.-John Burroughs ~*~ |

Enjoyed the haiku and the photo, Jerry. Do you know what kind of crane that is? It is one we don't have here. Owl |

No Owl, I don't know the name of it, and I'm not positive it is, in fact, a crane. I ripped it from the Internet because it looks like one. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
