Haiku
Gray matter matters
even when considering
matters of the heart.
Pi-Ku
To listen,
think.
To see, just thank.

Though I loved both of these, a Pi-Ku has a syllable count of 3/1/4 (3.14–or Pi) 🙂
Yikes. Thanks so much for setting me straight. 😉
These are little gems. Thanks.
When I teach my students to write haiku, I usually caution them not to repeat words, because so few are available to us in only 17 syllables, but you’ve used repetition skillfully here. 🙂
If Cacti Could Think
To listen, think and thank to such sweet words.. Loved it..
Someone is Special
You’re quite welcome! I’d want someone to do the same for me. Nice change 😀
^^That’s always my philosophy, too. Thanks again, so much. And of course, the name “Pi-ku” makes more sense now. Ha.
Haha, yeah at first I thought it was some new Pokemon or something 😉
