Poetic moment

Where's haiku is itself a strictly guarded structure by purists , so many syllables to a line and all that, I am personally not impressed with that take. I believe a very short poem which has a certain sense of paradox or abstract between 2 or more images works. I think the images here connect on that universe and makes a poem. It is unique to some of you previous entries in that it is both personal and impersonal at the same time. Your range is expanding and it is a joy to watch!

Me, too.

Me, too.

It's about the heart's strings. Opera and a good haiku does that to me too. Enjoyed the tugging.
