Sifting sun for us,
pine needles carefully choose
the prettiest rays

Lovely words you have chosen here,
as well as the thought you put into them.

***FANTASTIC***

BRAVO

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Haikus rule, especially the one's on the Simpson's when they take a vacation to Japan.

Anywho, I really liked this one.

Isn't it wonderful how such a simple thing can bring such pleasure...just as this poem does.

Seed laden pine cones
Nestling midst fallen needles
Tomorrow's for rest
