Haiku

 
                                                       downhill trail
                                                       along a stream
                                                       ...in it
 
 
                                                          lilacs in bloom
                                                          giving the dustmop
                                                          three extra shakes


                                               field of dandelions
                                               thousands of wishes
                                               going unused

A Hundred Gourds

A lovely trio. And won't we miss A Hundred Gourds?

Hi Bill.


Thanks for commenting. And, yes. I'll miss AHG, but I can understand Lorin's wanting to move on. It must be a full time job to publish a journal, even one on-line.

all the best,
Adelaide
