Wonderful words in your Haiku Carolyn and good luck in Raul's new contest... his photos always present the best challenges to our creativity... thankxxx for your well wishes in Nathan's contest ... since there are so many male poets on this site I thought I'd set the scene with a "him" writing "her" a poem of adieu' and love ending .. sounds dramatic I know but that is me .. drama queen in action... luv.. Linda-Marie
