Wow! What can I say … I am speechless. Can I use it for one of our upcoming Tan Renga Challenges.
I would be honored.

I would be more than happy.. When you say it.. It’s really a beginning of a tanka too..
Geisha’s tears… a moment perfectly captured. Lovely haiku, Bjorn.
well penned and evokes strong emotion ~ carol ^_^
I’m in awe too. Bravo!
You have mastered the art of subtlety in your poem(s) Lovely!
Beautiful.
The ending caught me by surprise—and delighted me!

Your Monet did not prepare me for the Geisha;s tears, well done!

Melancholy, but a lovely read.

Sadness, though beautiful…another gem of yours.
If the rain isn’t silent neither are the willow leaves. Good collation.
