Yes, my friend your great haiku shows us that we are a part of Nature and our souls need the blessings of watering. That life on earth is precious and o are we humans. God bless you my friend.

Oh Sara Good Morning. I am a believer in souls and protecting souls as well. I found this entry most beautiful with great merit. May there never be a fractured soul. May all souls be nurtured and attended to. Also your title is spot on with your words. Have a wonderful morning and day. Blessings and Peace always to you and Bill. (smiles)

Thanks, Lisa, for your comments. Souls are beautiful. One has to look for them sometimes with new eyes....has always disturbed me (even as a child) when I sensed someone had a fractured soul. I suppose in small ways each of us have parts of our souls that are fractured, wounded by life and circumstance. You, too, have a pleasant day. Bill says 'hi' hugs, Sara

This is so deep dear beautiful Sara, I love how you've conveyed so much within such few words and syllables.. How every soul's eden needs to be nourished with love and purity, by being nurtured by distilled dewdrops.. Letting the teardrops of love flow, slowly.. So as to cleanse every cell and give rise to a rejuvenating vibe! This is so evocative, brilliantly done! :)

Thank you, Hiya, for reading my creation. Yes, every soul needs to be nourished by with love but also the type of purity you describe. Sometimes tears can be so cleansing. I appreciate your insightful and kind comments. Have a great evening, Sara

Wow how deep can a haiku sound, you’ve shown that here to us all with your 575 syllables. Field of soul should be always watered by raindrops, and it can also be perceived as , sometimes tears can cleanse our soul, its good to let it all out. Profound and beautiful, so metaphorical and seep. Most gorgeous haiku ive read in a while: loved it

Greetings...you totally 'got' what I was trying to say and imply--hard to do in so few syllables. Thanks for reading and appreciating my haiku. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Sara

Don't know that there is a difference, heaven perhaps weeping her love and sorry -- the soul accepts all. Somehow, there will always be blossoms. Lovely, inspiring read.
