Ulla, I love your haibun. Great haibun form. The haiku. Smell is a strong sense. It can bring memories for some. I like the juxtaposition of the flower fragrance and eternity.

I have read quite a few poems for Nomi and Yvonne. It's very nice.

Our losses are felt deeply and I enjoyed your soothing words here Ulla. Grief can grip us like a vice and your fine poem helps to soothe this path here, love Dolly x

Nicely said. This is the second writing dedicated to Nomi that I've seen. I wasn't sure what the book was about, and I didn't know other authors were adding to it. I don't know Nomi, but it is comforting to know he has many friends. Thanks for sharing it. Be well.

Hi Ulla. I hope you are enjoying a happy day! Your well-written haibun will definitely be special to Nolan as he grieves for his wife. It is a lovely tribute and a creative write to send his way. Well done, my friend.

another great little poem an elegy expressed in a hanibun for Yvonne, Nomi's late wife. I like the interplay between the prose text and the short haiku that sums it all up

A touch message of condolence, Ulla. I would say that Nolan has a great friend in you. I don't know him very well, but what contact I have had with him has shown him to be a very nice man.

What a sweet poem, Ulla, for our friend Nomi. I hope he feels the showering of support we're sending. I love the yellow tulip and its message of eternity. I think we're all shedding tears for him.

Hugs,
Rhonda

As eternal as God's many gifts to mankind are; as eternal as our gratitude to him are; as eternal as my love for my dear wife shall prove to be. Even more eternal will be the love and appreciation for and of the many friends who have so kindly expressed their mutual feelings of sadness of this most unanticipated death of one so dearly loved. Thank you all, so much.
