So good!
A haiku that embodies weight and Karumi (lightness) at the same time….so so difficult to do. This poem soars. Thank you KJ.
The kaiku is outstanding in what is left unsaid but implied. This poet’s work is always fantastic to me. I’m so glad so I opened the mail and found this today.
thanks for this! I appreciate your kind words! kj
