Hamish and Chevrefeuille continue leading us on the haiku journey through the senses. Today it is about sweetness. Inspiration comes from the notes provided b Hamish and these haiku.

grandma has passed away
her sweet perfume of freesias –
Ah! that sweet scent

Ah! that sweet scent
memories making my heart cry
grandma’s stewed pears

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.

  3. I wouldn’t mind being a hummingbird myself!! I just love to get the droplets of sweet nectar out of honeysuckle blossom. A cousin showed me how to do this once. Kewl!! I’ve never seen a pink one, only yellow ones.
