Letters


                                      vintage pages 
                                      scenting of autumn's pines--     
                                      grandma's words echo like bells           


                                                            ~0~0~


                                                             calligraphy
                                                            on torn pages -- 
                                                            canvas of a stormy sky

    So lovely Grace... I love the line "grandma's words echo like bells." How I miss my grandmothers and so wish that I could sit down with them and hear their sweet, wise voices...

    Your haiku are fabulous! I can't help but think I know what a bundle like this might mean to someone. Maybe it's time print out hundreds of pages of the lives of our family and not keep them hidden in cyberspace. I'm motivated!



    Peace

    Beautifully done Grace! The prompt and the pic blend perfectly! That's the beauty of old manuscripts. More so the capture of moments in time that touch part of our life!
    Nicely!

    I always wince when I see torn pages. I wonder what prompted the tearer to rip those sacred words, whether calligraphic or otherwise...

    Weird Script
