A small drop of juice 
from a Mango touches you
as I taste the sweet

OOO! And, congratulations, for this one! I am a sucker for haiku, SOME I don't get from other poets. I love Haiku that are sweet and full of nature and passion. As for me Michael, I'm a tropical kind of girl. Lotions and real fruit all around, I believe in a real fruit sweet bath. He he he ! I think you are one of the best poets on the soup, you know exactly how to charm your readers. Take care,..love,..L.A.

I like this, because it is left to the reader's discreation as to what is being tasted. Clever write!: )

This one conjures up some very different images for me, some more sensual than others. He he, maybe just a messy eater ;) I think I'm tending towards the more sensual though. Lovely ~ Sharon :)
