Well put.
Hi Bill, I tagged you on a song post if you're up for it. Congratulations on the haiku.
Aurora, collin, Vaughn, my thanks.
Collin, we do seem to be on the same wave length rather often.
Keith, what's a song post?
Love the lightness in this.
delightful - a haiku that lingers...
Thanks, pat and polona
beautiful
it has that wonderful joy and lightness which i used to find in ray bradbury many years ago
thanks bill
Oh, yes, the laughter of the children who don't care if dandelions are flowers or weeds.
A very beautiful poem.
Thank you for sharing.
I really appreciate that Bradbury reference, floots.
dana-maria, I don't care if they are flowers or weeds
sharing a bench
a perfect day for
dandelion viewing
Did you have this one at Haiku Hut? Looks familiar - I printed a long list of haiku based on dandelions yesterday and read some of them. Whether you did or not, it's really nice.
No, I didn't workshop this, andrew. I entered it in the May Shiki Kukai. Did you see it there?
I like the surprise in this Haiku Bill, the reader is expecting to see the light dandelion fluff taken up by the wind, its a common experience, but instead you add the element of surprise by introducing the laughter of a child; this is exquisite.
much love
gillena
