Haiku My Heart: Razzle Dazzle

but far from standing shyly
she razzle-dazzles




This week's Haiku My Heart offerings
can be found at Rebecca's place.

This is a haunting close up photo--I assume in Mexico? Love your haiku, too, especially those words razzle dazzle. Such a contrast from the other words.

It is a fabulous image and the expression is so deeply moving. Rebecca's Madonna. What a glorious halo round her. Razzle Dazzle is so onomatopoeic. I love words like that to describe and it certainly fits here. Beautiful post, Meri!

You completely and totally adored him." And yes, she's right. I did adore him. Utterly. I loved his scent, the texture of his skin, the sound of his voice, how gifted he was at working with people. His soft green eyes melted my heart. My heart skipped a beat when he came through the door. He made the best Spaghetti Carbonara, Veal Scallopini, and Fettucini Alfredo I've eaten anywhere, including in Italy. His touch undid me, made me shiver with delight.
