This excellent monoku actually reads like a haiku in one line, Paul. You have a special skill for this style of writing and I know from personal attempts, it is difficult to create. Outstanding monoku, Paul. Best wishes in the contest and for a Happy New Year! Love, Carolyn

Carolyn Devonshire

I've learned more about haiku from reading yours than I ever learned previously. Not saying I can write them, but now I do think I understand what makes a good haiku. That is your forte, Paul!

Paul Callus
Date: 1/1/2019 3:12:00 PM

You are right, Carolyn; monoku are, in fact, a one-line haiku. Thank you for reading, commenting and liking. I hope that this year will treat you much better than the one before! Love // paul
