my only citrus
this morning — high, bright orange
in cold cloudless blue

Jacqueline Pearce, children’s book author, of Wild Ink blog has a lovely post of photos and haiku about an exhibit at Sawa Tea Lounge and Gallery. She (haiku) and her friend Jean-Pierre Antonio (photos) collaborated on this exhibit of Japan. It felt like an early spring gift to me. Make a cup of tea, click on the link, and enjoy.

You leave the best comments. Thank you for the analysis. I love reading what someone else sees in my poem, seeing if it matches my own intentions or discovers more. You have a good one too.

tillybud,
I enjoyed my visit to your site. Thank you for visiting and commenting on the haiku. Hope to see you again. By the way, I love the name of your blog. 🙂
Thanks, Yousei! I love it when someone responds to haiku with haiku. Kind of feels like one of those poetry parties aristocrats used to participate in old Japan…
Jacquie,
I couldn’t resist. Glad to share your site.
Very beautiful haiku…was also interested in the reference made by Existential Poet…looks interesting.
slpmartin,
Glad you liked it. I visited the sight Existential Poet mentioned. It looks very useful. You should take a look. Thanks for stopping by.
A clean, clear, cool haiku you wrote here! I look forward to Wild Ink. I came back onto your site because I wanted to tell you about this website, too. You probably already know about it, but…
