Where clouds once fantasised

"We're all out there, somewhere, waiting to happen."
This is nice!
That’s good. I wanted to make something with a nice feel to it. Thanks.
I like the personal and the general mingling…
That’s something I’ve been trying to add since I started writing some haiku, so I’m particularly pleased you liked that aspect.
Beautiful!
Glad you thought so! Thanks
Ah, yes … so many layers and levels of meaning … one to read several times and savor. Very well done!
Thanks, Jen. I’m reading through Jane Reichhold’s techniques of haiku… hmm lots of new things to try, lots of new ways to get it wrong 😉
Lots of ways to get it right, too — I’d put this in the “right” column 😉
lovely depth … great syntheses!
Thanks, Georgia. I’ll be pleased if I can get some “syntheses” in my haiku.
Well, seems to me you’re on the right road!
