cathedral window
a candle in the chapel
lit by a sunbeam

    cathedral window--
    better seen from the inside
    to appreciate

    the color
    of incense
    stained glass

    I like that one, Ed. It weaves all the senses together just like the experience in many beautiful cathedrals.

    single blue rose 'gainst her cheek
    glisten by tears

    Beautiful Margaret,I loved how your poem flowed together.The 5/7/5 haiku system was there to me that's a plus.
    {The skies a prism,}
    {It looks like a cathedral,}
    {Bursting with colors.}
    Take Care,Darleen
