All very good! Nice Haiku Magpie.
ReplyDeleteLovely choices!
ReplyDeleteWe're all quick off the mark this week - have we been waiting for Willows return?
Hope you had a great Christmas
Terrific stuff here--haiku
ReplyDeletetimes four, a quadku,
or haikuad. Great way to
blossom into several
directions and alternatives.
/two empty hands/ always
meant honesty, acceptance
to native Americans, open
hands, open heart, arms
open; yet gloves mantle,
they cover up and deny
the touch so often needed.
I like the oracle of the
two lost gloves coming
together somewhere in
the universe, and creating
oneness, a pair.
Lovely haiku.... fun pieces.
ReplyDeleteThose are great!
ReplyDeleteThe last one makes me smile. Good job on all.
ReplyDeleteDear Kathe,
ReplyDeleteMy favorite?
Warm soft gloves
Keep lovers hands cozy while
Clasping mine
Happy New Year!
Lovely pieces and happy 2011 to you too.
ReplyDeleteWould you consider creating 9 more, and then you could call it
ReplyDelete"13 Ways of Looking at a Magpie"? (Just kidding!)
I really enjoyed having the variety of poems to read. Thanks.
Great haikus, kathew! You have a nice flow to it. Very good!
