Paul, Great pictures above that go hand-in-hand with the wondrous moving verses of your three-headed Haiku here. Best of Luck in SKAT's contest. (The imagery of the first photo above somewhat bespeaks of the coming of Halloween too in October. My birthday will be on Oct 14th, but my wife always tells me that Oct 31st is always my favorite day with Halloween, dark themes and all.) Keep Up The Great Writing Too!! Cheers and Best, Gary
