summer-blue morning—
the ragged things rejoicing

    Am guessing the raggedy thing survived the fire? Or just a raggedy tree. I’ve seen some. All living things deserve to feel the beauty of a sunny blue-sky day. Beautiful haiku.

    Your comment on my blog – about my found poems sometimes bring you joy, and sometimes make you ponder – could be my words, as I feel the same coming to your blog. And indeed – this time I am pondering too…
