hey there again Kashinath ;)-- thanks for dropping by my haiku-- I entered the velvet sky one-- as for that thing with the word "drip" - yeah I did copy/paste although you can actually do it straight on the post poem page? just use the space bar to move the words where you want them to be; most of the time it works for me ;) hope this helps :D

Really like how that last line shows so much suspense, Kashinath! Really enjoyed this one, sort of reminds me of a suspense thriller ;) Wish you the best in Chris' contest :D
