Congratulations on the new book. I never thought that I would or could become interested in poetry, but of course, that is the case of many things we don't understand. These shorter forms of poetry are my favorites. Saying so much with so few words. Thanks for sharing. :-)

You've given the reader a great deal to digest with the presented image and words. I felt the thoughts of a sickness in the leaves and shuddered at the disease killing the plant. Has it truly been granted clemency, or just a reprieve?

Thank you for sharing,

This is an excellent nature haiku rendering Gypsy, indeed there is some hidden gems and its application to everyday life sewn into its hem, well done, my friend, blessings, Roy

Hello, Gypsy,

Yay! The club is starting again. I will check it out later on.

I like your haiku, it's sad -- I hope the tree doesn't suffer!

Have a great day! :)

Congratulations on your publishing projects on Amazon--the first anthology's cover is stunning. I admired your "sick tree" haiku and its pleading for "clemency". I felt very sorry for its plight. Sighs- Joan

Hola quapa, this is beautiful. I really liked the great imagery of the sick/dying trees looking for help and ultimately for a reprieve. I'm still trying to get hold of the Anthology from Robyn, but she seems to have disappeared from the site, so I'll have to wait for the release on the European Amazon site. It also means I'll order only a couple of copies as it will be so much dearer.
I love your poem. Besitos. Ulla:)))

    Robyn is on vacation, she will be back. I am so sorry about the waiting .... sigh... I will send her a message.

    Thank you for the lovely review and excellent feedback. Gypsy hugs

    Thanks for doing that. I would so like to have a few more copies to give away to family and friends. Un besito

Has the Governor called yet? Did my pardon come through? This is a very clever poem. I like clever writing. It shows that there's a brain behind the poem.

Hi Gypsy Blue Rose,

The poem that you wrote was interesting to read. It's too bad that the
tree is sick. The picture of it still looks nice though.
