Night-Day

night creeps steadily adorned in dark velvet cape… watching as men sleep crickets sound their shrill bullfrogs play tuba and base… shooting stars display day rolls in bright-bold night in surrender recedes… rays of gold invade ~*~ 1/23/12 Annalise Brigham Note: For Linda Marie's "Hodgepodge Haiku Trio" Contest *7th Place

Thanks for stopping by, Annalise. I am out of town again helping a sick friend. My computer at home died and I bought a new one that I'll install when I get home in a couple weeks. BTW Congratulations on your win in Linda's contest! Love you, Carolyn

Exquisite imagery, dear Annalise. I love the way you worked in the crickets and bullfrogs. Very enjoyable read and I'm sure it will do well in the contest. Did you get my regular email? I have been trying to call you, but the number I have for you is out of order. Hope you'll send me the right number! Best wishes for success with this lovely piece. Love, Carolyn
