Hugs Surrounded by warmth Consoling, comforting, love Touching skin and soul This is probably considered to be Senryu in a Haiku format and in that format, shouldn't be titled but I title all my Haiku. One of the liberties we Westerner's take when striving to emulate that beautiful Japanese art form. ·······  ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations.

Hi Larry,
It's superb! Absolutely one of the best I've seen in a long time too. I've known haiku masters who title their works and those who don't. I suppose it's all relative to the artist. As far as I'm concerned I don't care if it has a title or not, it's what the poem conveys and how it makes me feel, and yours is a winner! I feel terrible today, and this little jewel made me feel a bit better. In short, I love it. (((Hugs))) Pami
