Oh wow thats a beautiful umbrella! Id like to have that! How cute is that picture, where do you find them? Also this poem! Surely made me sing along! Who would have thought a senryu can be so mellifluous! Especially the line “ hop from peak to peak” that line is beautiful!!! And how it starts with “ what if” leaves a question that gives an evocative vibe! Truly in awe of your word weaving! Absolute pleasure reading you always! You amaze me! And i learn to flow my words by reading yours.

I agree, Ink, that umbrella is beautiful and unique. I just 'happened' upon that image while searching for an appropriate picture...and there it was. Don't remember how I found it. Your appreciative words of 'hopped' into my heart this morning! I'm grateful you appreciate the 'weaving' and 'evocative' nature of my words. Have a splendid day, dearest Ink.
