Congratulations John! This is a definite favorite, as I love how each word is perfectly placed in the 'thimble' as if inscribed! Hugs, Kimberly

Thanks Kimberly for you kind words. Perhaps my next contest theme will be '''THIMBLES"""

Thanks Jan, these forms and this topic forced us to put the fullness of passion into the proverbial "thimble"...(I wonder how many supers know what a thimble is?). As I get older my language reaches the "archaic" stage.

EAch line was carefully laid out to create a superb haiku, John. The last line ending softly, though a climax, so romantically. congrats on your win.
