    Seemingly simple - and then, when one looks at it a second time...intriguing

    Immediate + leaves me something to ponder on!

    Thank you, Vishnu!

    hand parting the mist
    dawn--
    delicate fingers beckon me

    flame pales
    hidden by the sun
    scent lingers
    _Vishnu... I hope you'll visit tinywords again.

    This particularly resonates for me today as I was up until the early hours of the morning, and said hi to a fieldmouse who sneaked in!

    I'll look forward to seeing more of your haiku too, thank you!

    Moody, expressive. Nicely done.
