Thank you for the compliment. When you stopped by in 06 that was my first real taste of Haiku and I am truly grateful for your encouragement and patience with many of my amateur attempts.

Much Appreciated,

PS: How long are you around, I have many more but don’t want to inundate the thread. Also, do you do Tanka? I have found it to be a very exacting art that keeps me striving and I think it helps me write Haiku.

Robert, Glad to have been of some service! To answer your questions, I expect to be around for several more days or until I collapse which ever comes first. I don't personally write tanka very much and will avoid them here. They are a different kind of poem with a different aesthetic and, to be frank, I don't care enough about them to want to spend my time with them. Time for lunch and a nap! Lee
