Sven, this is pure romance, and man, do I love to read those romantic poems, thank you! "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |

Mmm, lovely. Nostalgic and darling. Particularly liked this stanza: lady of the night has winter come to your heart? sing to me again ...wonderful. Oh, and a side note: 5-7-5 stanzas that do not directly deal with with nature are actually considered Senyrus... just letting ya know . ~ Beth |

inot2b. . . sometimes, the autumn does that to a heart. . . especially now. . . thank you. . . Irie, thank you my friend. . . Kathleen, you like to read romantic poems? thank you so much. . . there will be more, I promise. . . Elizabeth, thank you. . . I wasn't sure if these were haiku or senryu. . . but I guess you could look at them either way. . . which is why I changed the title. . . thanks. . . ---------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

I could understand your double appelation - as when I read 'lady of the night' I thought senryu but the seasonal references - made me see haiku so I decided after the last "who cares? they're beautiful!" |
