back/morning after

I thought I'd be able to post here while I was away, but, as it turned out, the devices I had available (I-Pad, I-phone, Kindle Fire) were unable to format my poems correctly. Anyway, I"m back, and I'll be visiting blogs and catching up over the next few days.

Here's one that was originally published in Modern Haiku

making love . . . she asks

My friends, I'll be taking one of my summer breaks. Although, between us, Pat and I have a fair representation of the wonders of modern technology, I found on my last break that I had trouble posting haiku or comments at this blog and leaving comments at yours. If I go silent for a little while, that's why.
