Ravindra K Kapoor Date: 1/5/2017 3:57:00 AM A Great message is there dear friend in your hard hitting Haiku. The fact is that in spite of all the odds and pains of life we celebrate every possible moments of our life otherwise we would miss all the beauty of life under the shadow of terror and fear which are hovering on our heads every moment. Great Haiku dear friend. Hope to see you on my new poem of today.

Gary Bateman Date: 1/2/2017 10:49:00 AM Excellent Haiku here Anne-Lise!! Your words touched a nerve with me. Reading your words made me think of the flash-fiction write I posted earlier ("Only A Little Kid") on Poetry Soup. Assad's Sham Criminal Syrian Army + Vladimir Putin's Marauding Russian Forces will surely kill many more innocent men, women, children, and old people in this new year. And lest we forget other dictators in the world too!! Let us prayer for a better world someday in the future!! TR/FAV!! Best Always, Gary Login to Reply Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 1/2/2017 11:56:00 AM - Yes, I remember the story in your poem ...
