I do not know how bad was the earthquake, anyway
Good to have you back, Bill :)
haiku seemed a scene from Sherlock Homes series :)
wishes,
devika
Delightful
Welcome back posting!
It was a 4.7 on the Richter scale, which, I believe, makes it "moderate." No serious damage and, as far as I know, no injuries.
Carriage horses in New York are especially associated with Central Park, but they also take visitors around city streets. The cab, of course, is a taxicab. But you're right, Devika, the language would permit a late-Victorian reading, and that's fine with me. Plus ca change . . . (I can't do the diacritical marks.)
Thanks, Vaughn and Gautami. It's good to be back, even though we always enjoy our visits to California. I had the opportunity to spend some time with a fine haiku poet named Don Baird, in addition to visiting family and enjoying the sights/sites.
Thank you Bill and this 4.5- 4.8 earthquakes are common in North India...we get to have things falling down from slabs...swaying while sleeping! :)
On the haiku -- I understand dear Bill, and please know that my readings are my first impression...i am not in the habit of thinking too much on poetry -- neither when reading nor when writing...but sometimes, it stays on and then I go making second and third comments :)
wishes,
devika
welcome back! :)

Devika, your readings are always welcome. You sometimes call my attention to aspects of a poem that I had missed myself. Remember: Intention is between the poet and the poem; meaning is between the poem and the reader.
Thanks, Vina.
Tikkis: How romantic!
