Old man squats Shoulders hunched in sleep -- Nightbound hills. ------------------ "Nunc lento sonitu dicunt, morierus" Now as I hear this bell tolling softly for another, it says to me, "Thou must die." |

Very good Nochtdraco. It took me a second to figure out what you were describing but once I did ... very good. ------------------ Jim "If I rest, I rust." -Martin Luther |

Hey, guys. Is 3 - 5 - 3 an acceptable form of Haiku? thought it had to be 5 - 7 - 5. Did I miss something? ------------------ Yesterday is history, tomorrow just a mystery. And if today is good to me how could I ask for more? |

Oh, this was neat -- I can imagine standing atop a tall hill, and looking out over the others in darkness. You have done well with this one, Nocht! --Kess ------------------ You cannot choose the way of your death, but the path you choose will determine its own end. |
