Notes About The Poem

"VANITY" FROM MY ROOF TOP GARDEN, 17 JUNE 2017, MY PHOTO, ©

Vanity

Pretension, self-love

Dark siblings of vanity

Humility lost!

I must confess I have been a little Vain in the past, but have realized over time that it is a superficial emotion, and it doesn't get in the way anymore Thanks for sharing your wise words dear Demetrios...Maria.

Hello Demetrios, You've certainly captured the true metaphorical essence here of "Vanity" with this wondrous Haiku. Superb, as always, my dear friend!! Best Wishes, Gary (P.S. Thanks for your recent read of my couplet about the moon's faces!! --GB)
