One glass and I'd be living a nightmare ... LOL ... no seriously this is a beautifully done haiku and its just my alcoholic sarcasm that got to my initial comment ... Anyway, Michele congratulations on your writing being featured this week at the Soup !!

Hi, Michelle. Stacey Haislop steered me on to your stuff. If Stacey says you are great, you are great. So, I want to read much more and ask you to submit much more. The haiku stirs imagination...that's what it's all about. Love, daver
