In honor of poetry Friday, a haiku that sums up my writing progress on MTLB.
Poetry lets me
stand naked wearing only
emotional threads
And fun stuff, the wonderful reading advocate Esme Codell of Planet Esme now has a blog! For those of us here at LJ, I’ve syndicated it at:planetesme so you can read her on your friends list.
More writing updates tonight.
Slight update – changed the last word of the haiku from clothes to threads (it was early and I had only drank a cup of coffee before posting!)
Also, I just checked on Amazon and the link to Hugging the Rock is up with the art! Yeah! Go ahead and pre-order now. You know you want to. 🙂
Really, I promise writing updates after work.
you wear it well–your haiku
NICE!
Re: you wear it well–your haiku
Thanks!
Thanks for syndicating Esme!
You’re very welcome. I (heart) Esme a lot!
What a beautiful haiku!!!
I remember loving this format when it was introduced to me in school. I used to play with words a lot, loving every syllable and sound. Guess I still do (g).
Have a great weekend!
Thanks Linda Joy. I love playing with haiku too. I’m reading a lot of it at the moment, trying to absorb from the masters.
Threads is a much better choice. You rock, as will your book.
Thanks. Yeah, clothes was kinda dumb. I mean, how can you be naked and wear clothes, even of the emotional kind? 😉
And yet, you can wear clothes and still be naked in the emotional sense. Talk about a conundrum.
Yeah, and conundrums usually confound me.
