| Haiku for Carpe Diem Haiku, Haiku My Heart and Haiku Friday |
If you got this far and are still reading, my creative energy has been going more into photography at the moment and setting up for the 'grand opening' of my Photography Gallery. I am still writing haiku and doing simple watercolor and ink paintings not to mention the very ordinary but very 'sacred' too, doing laundry, paying bills and on and on.
We are sharing with these creative bloggers:
Wishing you the best in each day. xxooo
Your posted comments delight us in every way.
