I don't know how to separate the birds from the bees. I think the nuns in Catholic school had the same frustration! Thanks for reading, Paul. I especially appreciate your input on haiku as you are a master at the form.

I adore this Carolyn. The hummingbird is one of my favorite birds. My mother in law actually got one tame enough to eat from her hand and my father in law got a photo to prove it. Amazing! This little gem is a fave from me! I hope it is a top winner! : ) xxoo
