Wow, I liked this. It was indeed a haiku and a well written one. I enjoyed the way you worded it and made it real for the reader. This was very effective imagery and perfect flow. Great job.

So back to your haiku! It's really good, it's hard to make something so limited sound good but you managed. With a haiku you don't have time for emotion and expression, they're all about description and imagery which you've got in yours. Basically it's cute, good job. | | Posted on 2006-07-02 00:00:00 | by Sagirlie | [ Reply to This ] | |
