I have always bee a great fan of those who are able to pen Haiku. (mine come out either like underdone chicken or burnt brownies) Yours here is lovely and provides as gentle a view as your full poems. Very pastoral and gentle. I adore the combination of Apple and Temptation, very sensual and difficult to refuse. This is another creative wonder here you have penned. Oh and thank you so much for stopping and commenting on my poem “The Preacher’s Song” and the generosity of your applause. Blessings and best wishes, richard

Oh my this even made me crave an apple, mine are just little green balls on the tree at this point. Lovely write my friend.

Oooo lala this is nature and sensual and shades of eve all rolled into three little lines. This is what haiku is all about...
Applauds on this one for sure!
Susan -
Now this one I get. It amazes me that a Haiku can have such tension built into it. Makes me want to dive in myself, even though I don't really like raw apples. Even the colors lend to the message. :-)
-
Wow this is so awesome, You created such a beautiful image!
-
very good
Very nicely done. This had a real "adult" feel to it and yet very natural.
Beautiful images you created.
thanks,

This was sweet and crisp
, the image of the soft white flesh enrobed in red satin was an amazing analogy. Beautiful use of metaphor.

refreshing
enjoyed this 5.7.5 format; a delicious poem, in many ways. enjoyed the levels in this haiku...uplifting & tempting & cheeky & beautiful all at once: quite an achievement for such a minimalsit form. -
lol....I love the new name! Very sensual and fulfilling!

Hi Susan:
A lovely Haiku with a beautiful message. I must say I can almost taste that crisp Apple. Thank you for sharing it with us. Bill -
Dear Susan,
A tempting haiku indeed. But hey!! Brida told me NEVER to have CAPITAL letters in a haiku. Evidently there are no capital letters in the Japanese language therefore they aren't permitted in haiku or senryu writing. (Aren't I the picky one?)
Love and hugs, XXX Hugh.

I'm glad you posted this one sis, however I never thought of an apple that way before. haha Perhaps you could title it "Lady in Red" but that's just me
. Keep up the wonderful work.
Love and hugssss

Lovely piece miss blushfulmoon. I love how you have sexily described the apple, and made it sound as if it was about something other than edible fruit. Nicely done.

ditto jenn's comment above...this could be taken straight forward (reminds me that i'm hungry...for food that is) or could have some more romantic/sensual meaning...good one sis!!! can't tell you how much i missed reading your poems when you were so ill. sure is nice to have you back!
lotsa love,
~liz -
