Wonderful job, Leon. It is the correct way to enter the soup community. I will follow you, don't mind if I criticize your haikus. I think it useful to express truth friendly and kindly, but truthful thoughts. I accept and expect criticism to my poems, willing to improve the quality of my poems.

Dear Mario: Yes, I agree. Once a piece is finished, it is done. Whatever we can learn from that work can be used the next time the muse calls. Right? Thanks for the comments. Leon
