Dear Linda Ok interesting work about the world of nature but there is a measure of depth to this work that speaks so much for the reader to ponder, great degree of thoughts put forth, cheri

Dear Linda, delighted to see you enjoy eastern forms of poetry. I love writing haiku and tanka. As you can see I am slowly getting familiar with site. Best wishes Delice

A subliminal state..Great!

You enlighten my day with this Haiku.

I've had my dark days my bad days but there wasn't a day I didn't love your poetry.

Your quite the writer Linda, such craft and beauty in your poetry, always, James :) :)

I love the haiku form and your play with tantra and zestful -- may the tending of your garden always be done with love and care. All the best dear one.

Stopping by to thank you for your kind comments and well wishes during my absence. You are a write from the heart, true poet, and a person that encourages so many others including me. Love and Blessings always, Rhonda

The first haiku is very philosophical - the use of the word "perceptive" works well with your theme of enlightenment. With perception, it allows one to discover those "zestful garden[s]" that are just around the corner waiting. The use of "zestful" and "tantra" really give this piece a Buddhist, peaceful feel. I am very impressed. "Tantra and morality" - hand in hand, perhaps both can produce oneness of mind and true enlightenment. I am intrigued by the "mocking the land" line.Always, Laura

Did Maurice put You up to that,lol! Very Wonderful and I Enjoyed it...I hope Everything worked out ok.I was so worried about My Situations that I had a very negative stress reaction and ended up in the ER,I'm back and ok.I just have to rest more than I used too.You were so much missed.Love Char

Wonderfully summed, in so few lines. This is one of your better Haiku's.

Strong yet a nature filled lightness. Very interesting combination, Kudos

Finally got over here. I see what a fantastic poet your are. Amazing.

My first thought- magical. You showed me a beautiful picture captured in just a few verses. I really enjoyed it ! :)

I added this one to my list. Should move it up theirs.

So much summed up in so little words. That, takes talent. A great write!

thank you for this wonderful piece. Layered and deep.

The last line in the second haiku is excellent! Keep at it and damn the critic's torpedos. Matthew Anish
