Underneath ivory puffs
Intermittently

What a creative view. I really like the second line. Much captured in just three lines. Thank you for sharing them and for taking time to comment on my poem. Have a good day! Karen

this is really fun. it's such a universal image I can instantly understand what you mean by the shadow laughing even though I venture a tree blowing in the wind has never been described this way. the ivory puffs is cute. makes me think of cream puffs I can pluck out of the sky, they'd be vanilla flavored, naturally:) btw, my poem 'wprds of the master' references the book that my 'wisdom' comes from. none of it is mine, I'm just good at paraphrasing. it's called 'A Course in Miracles'

It's lovely the way the trees play "hide and seek" with the clouds above, isn't it? Delightful, uplifting haiku, Alexandra! Love, Carolyn
