Connie, I wanted a taste of your earlier writes and I found this sad gem. Such a beautiful haiku. A tender and moving Haiku. A snapshot of sadness wonderfully expressed. Enjoyed!

Hi Connie..came to have a peep at one of your early contributions to Soup, and found this lovely, yet sad haiku. Sorry for this poor bird and all other people who suffer winter's chilly effects. #7 Regards // paul

I remember this sad one, Connie. I came way back here to tell you thanks for your comment to me. As for how I do it, I guess I am not as good as you at being a grandma!! You are more maternal than I am. I get more pleasure from poetry sites , which reminds me, I really do need to visit the grandkids. Hyrums' Bday is coming up soon. that's good
