Timothy Hicks Date: 6/16/2013 12:38:00 AM This haiku was very poignant in both it's fragrance and color combo. Mimosa and hummingbirds... sounds delightful! I've only read one so far, but you seem to have the "essence of haiku" down! Login to Reply

Gary Wayne Hill Date: 6/15/2013 12:32:00 PM Wonderful imagery in so few words, not usually a big fan of the Haiku, unless I read one that gives me something, like an image or a thought, this one did, I enjoyed it, made me smile :) Login to Reply
