Hi Andy ... I enjoy looking at the clouds and pondering.  You have me doing so once again after reading your poem.

Hello folks,

Please keep in mind that the "last" word of the prior poem is the first word of the next.  That's how the little train works.  So, Adelaide's poem should begin with "blue" instead of "open".  I hope this helps keep us on track.

Thanks for playing!

all the best,

Don

That way you get the necessary intensity and will never be

Yes!!! Exactly!  Thanks for posting his wisdom.  He has said it perfectly (imho).

You're right, Billie!  As they say "united we stand, divided we fall" ... this is a great opportunity (THF) and the more united we are in support of it, the more amazing our experience and enjoyment of it will be.  What's really cool is whether a little or a lot, it all adds up to supporting a wonderful organization that will serve the haiku community for years and years to come!
