stone by stone, the river widens
—Mark E. Brager
Issue 13.3 | 15 January 2014
The rhythm of this haiku is very evocative. When I read it, the voice of the poem goes up at the end, as if widening into infinity. All with 6 short words!
Thank you very much Sheila! This was a bit of an experiment for me in terms of rhythm and word placement. I'm so glad it worked for you…

I like the succinct choices of word placement here. A fine six-word haiku.
