Beautifully expressed Craig I can picture this so vividly:-) I still struggle to know if I've written a real haiku but have had several published so I guess one or two of mine are ok :-) hugs Jan x

Many kudos Jan, I struggle as well with the Asian forms but occasionally luck out and produce a decent one. Thanks

Hi again Craig, gonna reply here, since we don't notifications if someone replies to a comment you didn't make... methinks I am in the same foggy road as you are. I'm squinting now and I also asked Chris on the blog (hope he replies) of whether changing the tilde to an emdash would work. I hope I understood it right, that was he's saying is to avoid using tildes to denote the cut? If I got it wrong, oops, pls accept my apology for confusing you & kindly chalk this up to my babbling....:)

Hi Craig, aww, this is really sweet and for some reason, can't help but picture you and your wife (even if I am not sure what she looks like, oops), sharing that pink umbrella. Btw, may I suggest that you check out Chris' updated blog on his contest? He mentioned something about tildes and kireji...

Nikko, way too often an old screwball like me tries to understand the incomprehensible and occasionally I accomplish it, but there is something about Haiku that remains so obscure that I must just squint through the fog and hope to catch a glimpse... and still really wonder what I saw---Hugs
