Thank you, Charles. I tried to project the same characteristics of a haiku; basing them on simple descriptive imagery would have been too easy. Regards // paul

Thank you, Jan. I got hooked on these; in fact I wrote double what I posted, but I remembered that the sponsor only wanted about 5, so omitted the rest. Hugs // paul
