Outside, stars sparkle... Moon, slowly turning her back... Inside, all is rain.... |

I was melancholy today, flat. All day feeling like I'd been the guest of honor at a party, but they forgot to send me an invitation....trying to catch that feeling here... ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Thinking my sadness to come from my surroundings I fled to this place— to hear wild geese crying out “All lodgings are the same.” Lady Ukyo Daibu |

No one writes haikus better... but how I wish your life gave you happier ones! *S* After reading your response, I can only say... you were successful. *S* What a beautiful image of sadness... knowing that joy is there... but being in another place with its sparkle out of reach and misery your mantle... wonderful work! |

Enjoyed how well you expressed your feelings in a Haiku. I think we all have lonely days. Hope tomorrow is a better day! Deb |

LOL... You should be feeling MUCH better now... you wrote a hug magnet! *G* Sly, you are. *S* I hope they helped, my friend... even if your pen does create beauty from sadness, I'd still wish you never bore that mantle. *S* |
