Heya Russell,...It is as tho' u are describing the EYE of the storm...am I right?...what powerful terminology to accompany your theme. Haiku is NOT my strong suit however, I keep chippin' away at them. You are correct in my haiku entry that IT WAS about the baby discovered after Indiana's horrid storms...I wrote the haiku from the perspective of the "moment" that she was found. I know the outcome was sad but I tried to capture the feelings when she was found...the hope that was there BRIEFLY. Glad one person could "feel" that energy with me! All the best. Not able to write as much these days...Hugs, Gwendolen
