(not my best effort- but a quick try-using haiku) Butterflies heatwave Leaves fluttering memories When cold blankets come. "GOD GIVES- but man must open his hand." (German Proverb) |

David, it's good to see you in the Corner Pub. "Not your best effort!" I disagree, this is a great haiku, very unique and creative. Challenge exceptionally well met! The only criticism I have is that it seems that one season is missing, I could be wrong, please let me know. Take care, Melissa Honeybee |

wow... not your best? a beautiful image. much enjoyed ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. "Art is a lie which makes us realise the truth." Pablo Picasso "We Irish are too poetical to be poets, we are a nation of brilliant failures" Oscar Wilde ----- |

David; What do you mean, not your best effort? I loved it cause it's about butterflies! Love, Sis C):?) Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. ellie LeJeune |

Melisa H.--I claim to have included all four seasons on a technicality-- Butterflies=Spring Heatwave=summer Cold Blankets(snow)=winter Leaves(Though used as a verb)=is my allusion to Fall or autum. Thank you all for your kind words and encouragement---David |
