Oh you are good at this form, I dont think I've ever seen Ku by you before. It's one of my favorite forms. Awesome write, I think your nature is perfect for Haiku, its such a possitive expression.

Hmmmmm Haiku are something I never really got into but I like to read them. I just can't seem to do what you should do with this form. But you have done a great job.
Thanks for sharing.

Ummmmm..
Not a fan of oysters, but you painted an interesting picture. And when I read this and the apple poem I would have to wonder where your mind is these days.... Both have a subtle undertone...
Yeah well you must be feeling better

Cute
Hi Susan:
That is very cute. I like the visuals you gave us with this write. I particularly enjoyed the last line, the punch line, leaving its bed. What can I say but thank you. Bill -
why in the world would you even consider deleting this lovely haiku? it is perfection (in my humble opinion) and it will stay, or i'll have to come beat you up!
oh, why did you put it in your vampire collection? never heard of vampire oysters (hehe)
lots of hugs,

Well this little haiku sounds very familiar to me...roflol. I think that this just could be the jumping off point for me. Back into the swing of things here at AP.
This is short and sweet sis...I can visualize this oyster just tumbling down the stream just waiting for a special person to come along and scoop it up. Opening it to find the pearl inside.
YOU are the pearl sis. I'm glad to have found you.

Sorry not a big fan of oysters, but still you have a gift to describe things in nature (even those I don't like)

A short beautiful haiku. I read very few of these but when I do I always notice such marvelous things. Very visionary I must say. Your quiet way of speaking is really enjoyable. Marvelous.
P.S. Your picture is perfect also , Very fitting.
love you moon ,
James
