cranes' black-tipped wings fan embers

Oh, what lovely images your haiku conjures! I love "sparks in dusky sky" and "luna's fire erupts."

Lovely art, too. I can't tell the medium you chose to work in, from the computer image. Is it pastels? The background is especially nice.

I love this. Both the painting and the haiku. The painting .. I just love it. I have seen the crane migration near Valentine, Nebraska several times. They are awesome creatures. Your haiku is wonderful, suggestion the connection between the winged and the heavens. Great!

Peace.

Meri,
This is simply stunning. Your painting is almost Asian in its quality and line and then it breaks out in stained glass song. It is utterly fantastic, really! I am reminded of the Crane dance festival upcoming in Albuquerque, which I will sadly miss because it is in November.I am still here in the southwest and coming home tomorrow. Beautiful, poetic haiku--deep, Autumnal imagery.
xo,
Noelle

Haiku My Heart: May the Fourth Be With You

Haiku My Heart i invite you to imagine living in peace one day at a time I have to admit that I'm finding it hard to celebrate the birthday of my country having declared its independence from Mother England, when the country was founded on institutionalized slavery, the idea that white men were created equal but but black men were less than and women weren't even considered. We tend to glorify the "all men are created equal" phrase without looking at the reality. We can do better. We must.
