Thank you, Grace. Very nice piece here...
and I simply could not resist my impish muse's proddings:

Hello Dolly,
Very nice thought. Idle on the outside maybe, but working frantically internally to produce the next generation. More like a pregnant pause
suggestion of Spring - gnarled autumn leaf cupping snow caught in a time warp
Love

Good Morning Daniel,
Oh! that puppy!! I can see his expression afterwards, conveying the
sentiment "What! Me?"
Simply lovely.
Love
Grace

Super haiku, Grace...
It gives me the perfect occasion to show everyone the difference between true haiku and my 'HeadCase Haiku' or faux-ku

Oh Daniel,

You can always brighten my day with your faux-ku. What a wonderful sense of humour you have - I love it!

Oh Grace,
I LOVE your haiku!! What a thought ... I could see and feel the breeze ... could gaze at the sky and those daisys, all though your well chosen words. Wonderful!
