    Thank you Matt for stopping by and commenting. I really appreciate it. I am new to haiku and I found it so hard, for my writing is usually long, so I am really breaking my head. But I am headstrong and will continue, with of course, all of your support. Thanks once again, Iris

  • happyfeet5 replied

    Thanks Helen. I still find it kind of weird writing it for I usually write long poems. So I am breaking my head with this but I’m having fun. It’s like a puzzle I guess. Iris

    beautifully done iris.. you are getting great at these !!!

  • happyfeet5 replied

    Thanks Shoaib. Would you believe I didn’t know what a haiku was until I got here? I never studied that in my English classes. It wall all Edgar Allen Poe, Robert Frost and William Shakespeare, etc. I started asking questions and gave it a shot. I felt silly at first, for I know you know my style of writing, usually long poems and writings. But, you have to try it all. Freedom, like going back in the escalator? jejejeje Oh, and I looooooved your comment to Jono’s poem for me. That also made me happy and smile.

    Thank you very much. I guess I was thinking like a little girl would react when drops of rain fall on top of her. I guess I became a little girl. Nice feeling when you could go back to your childhood in these little pleasant ways. Iris
