tree to tree--
I walk along carrying
shadows

step by step, so soon

    This has been my favorite Wednesday haiku this year, wonderful!

    It's rare that the contemporary haiku match Issa's verse, but this time I feel they have.

    Fantastic trio of poems.

    warm regards,

    Alan

    Very beautiful these shadows we bear and carry along - loved all three of these poems. A bow to the poets once again.
