Eloquent and on target! One of the many things I’ve always enjoyed about your haiku Celestine is that in addition to being beautifully scripted, they are always full of meaning. Making one take a few minutes to think about what you’ve just written! 🙂
readinpleasure said:
Thanks for the lovely compliment,a Penny, as always! 🙂
Alice Keys said:
I can’t say which of these two great poems I like better. Him. Or the coffee. Hmmm… 🙂
readinpleasure said:
You can like both equally 🙂 But since I’m so crazy about the coffee I will go with that! 🙂
Alice Keys said:
The guy sounded delicious, too. 🙂

a fragrance that haunts me, for reason unknown is the fragrance that comes off earth after the first rain.
