Father’s Day…an 11th hour teddy bear
(Prune Juice, Autumn 09)
Roberta, it’s a pleasure to experience Your haiku.
It’s deep and natural. Rare.
Beautiful, and all in just six words.

Special time, special moment…
Memories are always warm.
Missing is a reality.
Poignant haiku, a good first sentence also.
