I like when i read poems over and over.. it drives me crazy... and sometimes I like the feeling of crazy... LOL, however, reading haiku over and over is not the same. It helps understand the imagery a bit better. sis, i want these grapes, from the best wine. I'm not a drinker, but I will make an acceptation. you gave the haiku a nice jolly ending... always~ Linda

You are obviously making it easy for Alfred to choose who will win his contest...he would certainly choose you my friend! This is an astounding poem, one that I loved reading immensely! You have presented a wondrous piece, a surely delightful poem! Great Work!!
