Thanks! Its comments like yours that will inspire me to finish the book. Makes me feel good that you enjoy the writing. Honestly, sometimes I hate the book...it seems to have a mind of its own, and I'm unsure of my ability to make anything worth reading. But, more than anything, I just want to know I did it. Thanks again, Heather. If and when, I finish, I'll send you a copy.

Heather, I was just noticing, all the top wins were "dark" poems. I am glad I went with a dark theme . I had no idea what she would like best!!

So jam-packed for such few words. It takes way longer to ponder and visualise these than it does to read them.

Or perhaps just a different eye? Your haiku are fun to read. You should write them more often. J

Really like this poem and the comparison between Picasso and the defective mirror.

Awesome Haiku! I have a poem called Fragments too, but it's totally different. This was a fine verse - quite enjoyed it. Always, Laura
