Thank you, Ana; you are sweet and kind! I still find time for cloud-watching, believe it or not; I do it with my granddaughter and we get lots of fun out of it...relaxing and inspiring. /x/ paul

Wow! A haiku with depth and meaning. If only a cloud could be an "envoy of hope and peace." We poets are dreamers. We see so many things in the clouds. Bless you, my friend. Love, Carolyn

Good day to you Carolyn! Still trying to answer my mail, but it keeps increasing instead of decreasing!! ... and my internet is so very slow! Glad you like my tiny haiku; clouds will always fascinate me...even looking at their shapes makes for a lovely pastime (Valentina enjoys that, and she wrote a small poem about clouds too.) Love & Peace ...... paul

Now that's my kinda Haiku Paul...A simple observation turned into 'an envoy of hope and peace'...VERY well done sir! -Tim

Thank you Sara. At first glance evil seems to be on the winning side, but I believe that good can never be a loser. Peace to you too. Have a nice weekend. // paul

Many thanks, Jan. This one is meant to compliment and somewhat balance the previous haiku "Cloud". Not all is gloom and doom! We must live in hope of better things to come; it's our only chance. /x/ paul
