  4. Your classical haiku is a treasure, Carol, as usual; so deep, so spiritual.
    Again, it sounds beautifully, real...religion, within...without.
    Without now, eternal...

  6. It is sort of a religion, isn't it? I mean, we do this weekly, almost without fail. We honor the experience and the people that have become friends through a special kind of cyber relationship. Natural, like Nature, a miracle in and of itself. Lovely.

    Peace

  25. Wow, Carol, this is gorgeous. It would fit well in my living room with all the mementos my dh brought to me from Japan. Please explain what a haiku is. According to Wikipedia it is a 17 syllable nature poem with 5 syllables in line one, 7 in line two, and 5 in line three. Is this your understanding?
