This is my 1st time participating in Poetic License, but I’ve joined the Haiku Friday crowd weekly on each of my blogs for the past few months. My ‘Spring’ haiku today is at Sacred Ruminations here today: Joyful Burst of Color
Hugs and blessings,

i loved them all.. i have never been here before.. but i will be back….

Lana, Thanks!

Pamela, I love a bit of traveling myself, but it’s been a little painful lately.

Karmyn, Thanks for the comment. Hopefully all of this will be resolved before we head back to Colorado on Tuesday… :/ We’ll see…

Robin, Good golly, I should make you an author on my blog with the length of these comments! Here we go:

a) Thank you. I’ll do my best to write interesting (and error free) material.
b) Hmmm, I actually could argue that there are subtle distinctions. I suppose that I could practice economical word use and still be lengthy if I had plenty to say. But I won’t do so… I just like to use “and” as much as possible.
c) Sadly, yes. Though I never said I was a good one.
d) I certainly hope so.
e) That it would be.
f) Thanks! I’ve incorporated “Wonky” into my regular repertoire and plan use it often until Sarah tells me to stop. Thank Nick Hornby for that one…
g) I hope you do, and return to comment. But only if you don’t point out my typos again…
h) Welcome to Twitter! It’s an interesting place…

Lovely Haiku’’s really – amazing that you can tell a story in such few words.

a) I thought I HAD subscribed to you last month, but when I clicked the link to your page, it hit me I hadn’t seen your blog in my reader. So, I subscribed. THEN I read your post. Whew…I barely avoided the switchin’!!

b) Does brevity = word economy? Can you have one without the other? Were you being redundant or suggesting subtle distinction?

c) I think you were drunk on tex-mex when you wrote your post. It’s FULL of typos that gave me reason to laugh at you. I mean with you. Because you ARE a writer, right?

d) I bet b/c of my letter “c”, I’ll have a dozen typos in this comment.

e) that would be blog karma.

f) Geez…I’m just now getting around to your haikus. What’s up with that? #1–What are you talkin’ about? In the South we get about 8 days of Spring! #2–You reminded me about the Seinfeld episode where he explains the difference b/t “taking” the reservation and “keeping” the reservation. Also, you used the word “wonky”. Love this one for both those reasons. #3–I heard the longing in this one; aptly describing the long winter’s hold on Season. Lovely.

g) THANK YOU for the encouragement to join the carnival. You’re a great addition to the mix and now that I’ve added you in my reader, I might actually check out some posts in between.

h) I twittered you this morning. I have no idea what that means, and it sounds “wrong”, but that didn’t stop me.

Ok…I’m done…off to visit more haikus!

I was suffering with you on the airline fiasco… in heart only. Haven’t been traveling recently, thanks goodness. well. thank goodness I haven’t been flying. I’d love to do some traveling.
