This reminds me of that painting we have all so often used as inspiration…I’m sure you know the one I mean. (K)
I’m pretty sure I know the one you mean! 😀
Very nice, Merril! I’m happy you shared.
Thank you, Jill.
Oh, this is a splendid haiku, the entire dance of life in three short lines!

Thank you, Derrick. I agree about Liz’s reading.
