Summer's Fleeting Angels Proud dandelions Don their soft, cotton halos. Warm winds defrock them. I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |

Hi, TL. Thanks for saying so, because I am a firm believer that with Haikus, the title is almost as important as the poem. Every. Word. Counts. John xo I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran |
