Nice to see you in the PM list Patricia, and thank you for your recent kind words and encouragement. Your Tall Tales I read as a sad reflection on humanity, amongst many other sadnesses we could take from it. Or have I got it wrong ?

No you have it correctly. I was feeling rather frustrated last night. I love that old wise woman though. Thank you. your writing is superb words written with a heart bone pen.

so few words say so much Patricia... lets hope it's not a tall tale that we hear. personally I would classify this as a senryu rather than a haiku:-( hugs jan xx
