I’d love to add this to my Thousand Haiku quest, and blog it with attirbution to you, it’sin my ripple poetry links – I love what I’m reading here.
That’s wonderful. Thanks Pearlz
Okay, will do and will send you a link. Thanks so much for the permission. Sorry about my typo above in attribution… eeks.
haha that’s a pretty great haiku. thanks for sharing. 🙂
Glad you liked it. 🙂 I had been driving home, looking at this perfect white curl in a vividly blue sky and the image struck me. Haiku is great.
http://thousandhaikuhealingquest.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/crescent-moon-haiku/ – I will also put this up on ripple poetry so the two sites link through to each other, you are welcome to send some more haiku – I’ll be doing some more work on this site especially at times where the world needs healing.
the phrase “best blue velvet bedspread” trips off the tongue as deliciously as anything from Coleridge. (I think that the best example of language can be found in his “Kubla Khan”) I got chills from the phrase you used. Thank you!
Why thank you! I confess I spent a couple of hours working out that line. It’s nice to know someone appreciates it! 🙂
Now I’ll have go re-read Kubla Khan. (I have just finished an interesting non-fiction book about how Genghis Khan’s daughters saved his empire, which wasn’t even vaguely poetic).
Very nice haiku:)
