  6. This haiku is beautiful and gentle. I love that you used the name of the art work as your first line. The two works – poetry and visual art – give this post a feeling of unity. Nice package!

      cj, I tried to leave a comment under your entry – but for some reason it did not “register”! Fine work dealing with a ravaging disease!
