Tom I love these Haikus and Senryus of yours, such imagery, I really don't know how you do it my friend. We can only try and learn from the master, thats you ...Maria :)

Thank you Maria, I must admit I'd never heard of them until I joined soup but they fascinate me and its a challenge trying to create a vivid image in three lines. Don't know about master lol, I'm still a student. Tom
