Wedding Veil

.


                        gossamer laces

                   adorn the face of young love...

                        the veil of promise

Congratulations, Carrie, on placing Raul’s picture inspired contest with this wonderful haiku. It amazed me at how many great and different haiku were inspired by such a lovely picture. Creativity shines on the Soup. (I thought for sure this haiku would do well when I read it the first time. You did great!!!) Smiles, DAS-J
