Thanks! It was my first Haiku. I analyzed some on the site of LScott Poetry until I felt ready to write one and it just came out as what you see here 🙂
For more (and better) Haikus, as well as awesome poetry, visit her at: http://lscotthoughts.com/
Scott, this is absolutely beautiful…your words, the perfect image and so many meanings in these few syllables; an awesome first haiku and I can’t wait for more from you! And you completely caught me off guard by paying me this HUGE complement! Thank you so much! I am no expert on any type of writing, let alone haiku, and to think you were analyzing mine? Wow, I’m stunned and honored…big hugs and thank you again, my friend! xx
Hey Lauren, it’s comment catch up day for me 😀
Thanks for always being here commenting and for sharing your own amazing work/heart always on your blog. Stay blessed forever
How do I begin to apologise for my silence…. ‘Don’t think I have done much reading in a while either 😦
I have A LOT of catching up to do….. but I guess this is a start 🙂
Hey, life happens and we get busy. Very understandable and the same happens to me too often 🙂
I’m doing very well, thanks. I hope you are well and always hope to see you writing again!
I just think it’s beautiful and the photo is so pretty too – I love it that we’re not sure if anybody writes romantic haikus, why not? I say. Have you seen the Spanish form called Shadorma? Stanza’s of six lines (sestets) with no set rhyme scheme. Thought to be a variation of haiku, which is clear from its syllable pattern – you’re good at this Scott, take a look at the Shadorma 🙂
Just passing along this info to all my ABC Award nominees..….I think it’s a great idea, I have already joined! See you there!

Thanks Shian! Yes, spring time. I was thinking about human natures and spring time while having lunch. Maybe this is why I feel like writing something new every hour (but been resisting)
🙂
hey thanks Wendell! No new poem from you today? whatup?? 🙂
Yea, I love using images on almost everything here. Sometimes I’m not sure if everyone can see the relation, but I’m quite sure you always can
Thanks! Hey, I’ve been trying to figure out why your blog title rings such a bell with me and it finally hit me 😀

Thank you! Hey I’m following you now on tumblr. I just have to get more familiar with tumblr. It’s a little different than what I’m used to but I’ll get it figured out 🙂
Thank you Michelle. I found that photo on bigstock.com. When I need a different kind of pic for something published I love bigstock because of the selection and it’s only a few dollars.
Thank you sooo much Shian! You know you’re one of my favorites and being awarded from you is the utmost compliment and inspiration for me to continue on my blog. I appreciate you! God bless always my friend
I so so so so SO can’t do haiku!! I admire you for it. But that picture. It is fantastic. I am just amazed on wordpress what I’m being exposed to. about once a week I go cruising sites & tags, & see some awesome stuff. Love the photography that goes on. This though, was like a very neat package 🙂

Hi Scott, I learnt of your blog from GG’s Blog: http://gagangupt16.wordpress.com/. You are in his, “About Some of the Fantastic blogs I have came across…” He wasn’t kidding. My, this poem is beautiful! I’m looking forward to reading more of your poetry.
The last line evoked so many thoughts with me (I guess that’s why the site is called ‘evoking the deep’). The wings could be golden, platinum, magical – instead they are bronzed. I wonder if it’s a literal image or if the poem hints of greater things to come from the newly emerged creature familiarizing itself with the world.
For me it meant a few things. Even literally bronzed 🙂
Sorry for my late reply as I’ve had a difficult few months. Thanks so so much for your comment!
