Lovely, Geraldine. I really like Tau-Ku … it has been awhile since I’ve posted any! Hmmm, will put it on my list of forms to revisit after the holidays.
Happy New Year to you and Mr Cheddar — may the upcoming year blossom and flourish beyond your wildest imagination!!
Hi PremI, So nice to “see” you again friend and thanks for your kind words.
Hi ArtMuse, Welcome and thanks so much. It’s actually a tau-ku poem not haiku. You may want to read more at the link I have above. Tau-Ku is a very interesting poetry form.

Hi Lorraine, It was an amazing sight to behold.
Hi Vesper, It happens all the time, doesn’t it? Nature surpassing art. Mother Nature welds quite a paintbrush.
Hi Joe, I love Tau-Ku too, it’s a nice challenge to work with. And this photo inspired me!
