Plucking Grapes Along the Lane

you are a good haiku-ist Andrea

Love the poem , I was once sat in a tavern in Cyprus , Not far from Aphrodite's beach When the owner said , Help yourself to grapes . I looked at him as if he had forgotten to put the grapes out , Above your head he pointed. there were grape vines all around the place and I'd gone there every night for two weeks and not noticed , Too busy watching the Greek dancers

Nice series of haiku. love phyl

I love haiku because is synthetic although not simple. This one is impressive. My sincere compliments

The line 'plucking grapes along the lane' makes me feel so at ease and summery. Way to go, Andrea. Lovely. -Jeremy

Reads like a winner to me..Enjoyed reading your contest entry..Thanks for stopping by..Your comments are always valued..Sara

you are very good at this form. I don't know why it is so difficult for me. This will do very well.

You are quite "purple" these days! It's very lighthearted and I know when I as younger at my grandma's place, I would spend a tremendous amount of time picking fruit. It never got old :) Best of luck!

And the winner is: Dandy Andie! (appause, whistles) Another 'juicy' gem my friend and I assume you plucked only well ripened ones and no 'sour' grapes?...I will stop this nonsense now

Hidden beauty of grapes adorned with the sequence of love. Thanks......, Best wishes for the contest. Loved always, bl

A paridisal picture of perfection. With Mothers day approaching, makes a nice tribute. Hope you have a wonderful one. Peace. :)

Very nice. I especially like the repeats with different cutting line for each haiku. They are simple yet evocative. It should do well in the contest. Jack

Love the image! It reminds me of my bothers and I picking dewberries on the fencerow.
