What an Autumn Sky Looks like

Light seeps through redwood
leaves and Tuscany windows
- a sun's smudged makeup.

If you ever publish a book of poetry, let me know?

The imagery you can manage to put into just THREE LINES makes me drool with envy.

Thank you.

And I will let you know - and I will publish a poetry book. No worries. :P

This sort of poem is called a Haiku and is extremely difficult to write well (concise wording, strong image), but I've got nice comments about it elsewhere, and the metaphor is strong - so I think this is one of the few times it actually works for me and not against.

*huggles*

How are you?
