I'm okay! Just worn out... but I really just wanted to point out 2 out of this world free versers I just found. Check your comments link! Oh, Bet, they are ARTISTS. I bow before their young genius. I thought you'd appreciate their craft, as a fellow free verser. It's nice to see them bringing their words here... hugs... and I was needing one too, a hug I mean. Just trying to be a good mom but feeling like the well is running dry. xox

An interesting haiku. It has been years since I have seen a grasshopper. Your haiku brought one to life for me. Thanks, Jancarl

this is very nice, Debs. I love the imagery of that jade grasshopper. Loved your comment on my blog. The one thing you and I see most eye to eye on, i think is politics!!!
