Thank you Sam! My new ku guru is wearing off on me. I'm letting myself see them instead of forging them. Waiting on my second cup to return my toes to the grass right now... I hope you get a chance to do the same today :) xomo!

I am so happy you wrote this - maybe close to the same day I wrote a poem about May. I am excited about this warm weather. High of 76 today! Hooray!

I was about to say it's grey here today, but a swath of blue is just opening up. Bring it on! xomo :)))

Thank you Jan! Honing my haiku. Instead of trying too hard, I am realizing that the simple things in life are haiku. Every time a big cloud came I had to put my socks back on ;), hugs! xomo

I can't believe it, the last five poems I have seen here at Soup are some of the best I have read all day (I was here earlier) This is also in my group of what I consider great poetry.

Wow! Thank you Andrea! I had forgotten I had written this one, the reply to a comment I made on someone else's foot poem reminded me, I figured what the hell... Again, wow & thank you! xomo <3
