Enjoyed the single long experience of reading all the haikus as a single poem. Keep writing them, in my opinion. <br />P.S. Here is a really interesting little discussion of the haiku form.

Not a bad idea to mix up the Opal Nation a bit although I must admit, I look forward to it each Thursday. As for mirrors? I find looking in the mirror without my glasses on is far more satisfying than with!

But I enjoyed these very much. Loved the one about the little girl and the mittens. <br /><br />Dave King has been posting a series of haikus. One or two a day, he is in the #40+ now. You&#39;ll find his link in a comment on my today&#39;s post, Gazed and Confused.<br /><br />He lives in England and does a lot of haikus about people and things that are going on there that are fun and often an enigma to me, which, if what you wrote is true, is a good thing. If you stop by his blog, tell him I sent ya. He&#39;s a good guy.Ronda Laveenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03902846545309643023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7368859556462491660.post-68953449642269703882010-02-11T11:38:33.164-08:002010-02-11T11:38:33.164-08:00Loved these Mrsupole, and you are right about Subby.

Mark over at <i>walking man</i> set me right on the true Japanese style...like my early work, yours shows some emotion( which I learned wasn&#39;t true Haiku, but the Americanised style ). Leah over at Weatherinthestreetschallenged me to do Tanka...I&#39;ll be back with the link to that.

Oh boy, sounds like you&#39;re in it for the long run. <br /><br />I have to be very careful with my skin, too. It runs in the family plus I am fair plus I have some sun damage already.<br /><br />Aw, sorry to read that it keeps being so hard for you. :(<br /><br />You hang in there nice and strong, ok?Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02224270588806351146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7368859556462491660.post-67233833601148941982010-02-11T10:06:52.200-08:002010-02-11T10:06:52.200-08:00I love haikus, too. Their starkness is so lush, right? But I am not a very good critic. I only know what I like. And I especially like the &quot;not&quot; on the end.
