15 haiku? holy shit. You went all out. lol
I liked these.. I'm craving some fresh farmer's market veggies now!
What "neat" haiikus!
I enjoyed reading them.
Happy Weekend!
Cable girl - I think the "muse" rewarded me for getting house cleaning done early this morning. I think I got in the "m&M" mood - couldn't stop at just one, lol.
Jenn - I was actually thinking of Wednesday's market, and I am now, too!
Thanks for stopping by, Jennieboo!
Oh, much fun. And what do you know. I have some haiku just lying around. Because, don't we all.
Awesome, Jen! 15! In one post! That's a contest record, I think. I love them. It's amazing how descriptive you can be with so few words.
These are great! My favorites are #2, 5, 7, 11, and 14. I'm kind of craving a trip to the farmer's market as well.
GACK... Now I'm starving.
Very cute :-)
Okay, now you too are addicted. We're planning on lynching Jenn-in-Holland and have something special in mind for Leslie who started all this!! Wanna be part?
Yes, back from vacation and have been busy reading and commenting. Am now composing tomorrow's post. Feeling some pressure, however, to live up to such high expectations!!
#7 is definitely my favorite, bittersweet as it is. It takes a lot of muscle to crank out 15 haiku!
You should visit Haiku for You. It's a new collaborative art project I think you'll enjoy!
Basho would be proud !
Oh, you made me hungry Jen. I love haiku- sweet and simple writing. The hardest kind.
These are great!!! I enjoyed reading them, love fresh fruits & veggies & now got a hankering for some!
wow - you shoule definitely enter that haiku contest. these were great - made me hungry too. :)
Thanks so much, everyone. Nina, I will definitely check out that site.
And yes, Fourier, I want IN, lol!
