Excellent haiku!
excellent.
How very lovely!
Wonderful. I love Shiva and his dance.
This haiku brings all kinds of images to me… love the photo too!
Oh this is beautiful love it!
Nicely done in such a tight haiku.
Happy Dancing !
Beautiful haiku.
irresistible
transformation comes dancing
bright awakenings
Meget smukt og himmelsk..
God pinse til dig og dine.
Altering your way…hmmm. …” fond of me” is totally unexpected. Your haiku has this element of surprise which I like.
Rosie
Very thoughtful and sweet your post is!
what a wonderful haiku for the dancing photo…
You must be on a
summer voyage, far away.
I’m still in school….bleck!
Ooooh love the mystery in this one!
I like this haiku very much. There is an intimacy about it with the “in the night he comes” and “fond of me” and I love the “tranquil dancer /altering my way.” There is a transformation in this fondness. Yes I like it very much.
Noelle

All the best, Boonie
