  • Final notes:
    Thank you for some awesome haiku. The HM's are in no particular order-but the haiku chain deserved one for such originality.

    Haiku: A touching haiku of two spirits diverse and yet not, a lovely snapshot moment you think about.

    Sundowning: I knew the term and what it meant, since my husband walks a similar line. A glimpse into her inner soul, that will always be there.

    Rabbit: A nature haiku that is well written.
