Robert Heemstra January 2, 2013 at 3:28 PM Thank you, Hanitra for your comments. I guess I'm hooked on the " _ku" I 've been writing haikus since 1999. I just started writing questionkus. I honestly love this form of writing. Thanks again and have a happy new year.

Richard Lamoureux December 18, 2012 at 9:10 AM Hi Hanitra Thanks to your suggestion the Questionku is an official form on the soup. Richard Lamoureux December 18, 2012 at 9:12 AM If you hadn't commented on my form I wouldn't have considered submitting.

Robert Johnson November 21, 2012 at 9:01 AM And now the summer's faded and springtime finally grieves. There's nothing left for us to do but watch as autumn leaves. Beautiful poem Hanitra.
