Sailing Leaf

a leaf falls
the water ripples
nature's boat sails away

    This is wonderful. madeleleine. I don't think you ever read our blogs here. Just to let you know. PD likes all her contest entries to have their names on the bottom, so next time you do one of her contests, you will have a better chance to get a nicer win by putting your name. THis deserved to be higher on the list. Congrats on the HM.

    I love the image of each lines of this Haiku and find myself sailing away with the leaf. A much nicer boat to be on than the one in my poem Adrift that you commented on! Thanks for your comments. Krista

    GREAT. It reminds me Basho's best-remembered haiku("an ancient pond / a frog jumps in / the splash of water") Good job, Madeleine! Ruben.
