1. Beautiful

   • Thank you 🙂

2. Awesome haiku. Trust me you’re not the first who thought at a one-night-stand. I even thought it once myself. Good job.

   • Thank you – I was a little concerned as I deal with the poet himself 😉

3. Honestly, I love your interpretation of Kristjaan’s haiku!

   One Fading Blossom

   • 🙂

6. With apologies to Mae West….sometimes a flower is just a flower and sometimes it is something else entirely! Nice take on the prompt, Bjorn! 🙂

   • Thank you

7. Beautifully done

   • Thank you 🙂

8. Bjorn, I like them all.and especially the first one. They each have a sense of aloneness and poignancy. Thank you for your kind comment on my poem.

   • Thank you.. the first one was not mine 😉 but it is a very good haiku…

9. Agree that both your haiku are so well done and poignant. I did not see the other meaning cuz of my rose colored glasses ;-O

   • So sweet .. and i couldn’t see anything else-

10. There is a tinge of sadness here… Does the one night stand turned to a possible one-sided love affair?

    • I honestly think it does.

11. Ah but a one night stand isn’t always negative! All three are excellent.

    • Thank you 🙂

12. it seems your flower is not the lonely one Bjorn!
    Great set as always, thank you 🙂

    • A she was a lonely flower… then a lovely flower 🙂
