If you are honest,
you will say the sky is blue,
not some shadow tint.

    What an amazing cactus. Somehow it looks a bit grumpy! Though it shouldn’t be with that blue sky to cheer it!

    I am curious, how tall is this thing? When I was growing up in Broneo, there were a completely white hairy ones. They are not very strong, kids are warned not to touchthem, because they don’t like the human oily fingers, and they die.

    So, the question is Are we honest?, I suppose. And all depends on the answer. Such a smart haiku!
    Best, M.

    Yes, the sky is blue. And the shadow isn’t. But I am taken by the thorns defending the flowers!
