  1. Congrats on 800! You obviously hold the strength and tenacity of this pillar! Love the storks looking over their domain – your haiku translates the fragility of all.

  2. Great angle there – bringing in an important haiku word,with the stork, which makes everything work so well – the visual really shows it – and the haiku resonates like Basho’s ‘warrior’s dreams’ . A superb haiku about the past and now.

  3. Wow…that was a fast 100. I still recall when you posted your 700th. I was ahead of you then. Now you are ahead of me. I’ve slowed down recently. Hadn’t really noticed how many till you posted that.
