I love this type of haiku Paul - so much said in three lines...

I've always been against short form poems, but slowly some of them are changing my mind. This is one.

Paul Smith said...

Thank you Kristin I'm touched that this spoke to you.

Hi Maxine, I'm really glad that you dropped by and am grateful for your honesty. You are welcome here any time.

Again, Paul is one of those poets who show that haiku and other short poems have more than a credible place in the world of poetry.

all my best,
