      Haiku and tanka are enjoyable forms to work with. I'm glad you liked this one. Thanks for your thoughts and for your encouragement.

    every line gives me a wow - perfect in my definition of the word. One of my favorites from you.

    the words are in a trance of their own and i love it when i see them doing that.

    Salamat(Thank you).

    Keep writing more

    I love this, Erin. You let me see once again another touching drama of nature as if it's taking place before my very eyes. "Swaying in the void" is an outstanding last line.

    You know what? You make me confused about my appreciation of your Haikus. There's a sense of 'overwhelm' in me, you know, just plainly astonished of what these 17 syllables have captured. At the same time, there's a big part of me that craves, craves for more. You've spoiled us kasi.

      That's the art of the haiku, really. To bring a moment of fluid life into seventeen syllables. Not a moment of thought. Not a moment of personal reflection. Not an expression of belief or idea. But a pure vivid moment of life, without thought, without personal reflection, without expression or belief. Haiku are Chan moments. They should hit you like a Linji stick, and leave a tender welt growing in thought.

    Finally

    A Haiku that finally got me. Maybe because it reminded me of someones eyes,, I am not sure, but I felt everything that I needed to as the same as I feel in your longer ones.

    Thanks Erin, you always astound me!

      Actually tankas give you a little more room to breathe. Haiku are more difficult in a lot of ways. Looking forward to your grosbeak tanka Suzy. Chopchop!
