Howard Kerr March 26, 2026 at 11:37 PM You have written a concise Haiku using colours that always add flourish to a poem long or short. A very original idea, Sandra Howard Sara Kendrick March 27, 2026 at 5:32 AM Thank you, Howard. I appreciate your nice review of my work. I see a lizard nearly every day. They are such an interesting species from my point of view. Sara K

Andrea Dietrich April 5, 2023 at 12:39 PM great one for spring. Right now we have snow@! Sara Kendrick April 5, 2023 at 1:00 PM Andrea, I am having them to come in my glassed or windowed in porch. I don't know how they are coming in unless they are coming through the doggie door. Amazing little creatures. They can eat a lot of bugs. Thanks for dropping by .Sara

Gershon Wolf April 1, 2023 at 8:20 PM I simply cannot resist suggesting an alternative name for this haiku, Sara. Ready? ~ 'Arbor-eel.' Please excuse me. ~ Gershon Sara Kendrick April 2, 2023 at 4:10 AM Yes, it could be an eel except for the fact they live in trees and on my back porch not the river or ocean. Thanks for the visit.
