    As a frequenter of flea markets, I really appreciate this haiku. This is what came to mind for me when I read it:

    flea market
    someone's grandmother's
    pin in the case

    Ah, those lovely old watches. ;-)

    Old Curiosity Shop –
    laquered dolls
    out in the mid-day sun

    outside the market,
    a flea
    bides its time

    flea market
    the time is now
    for old watches

    time capsule
    inside the watch
    his retirement date

    yes yes that's it: and so any possible
    time is lost somewhere in between

    M-am bucurat mult sa vad ca aceste cuvinte frumoase au fost scrise de o romanca.

    an old watch
