B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T !!!!
Those “alone” times are like treasures, you know! As long as we know how to handle them, they bring out the BEST and MOST CREATIVE SIDE in us!
I LOVED THIS, Amanda.. It spoke to me! I feel this all the time!!!
Phhheewww… I really have no words to describe how much I can relate to this Haiku.. it’s just plain wonderful!!!
And I totally get where it’s coming from, my fav. girl… After a packed Monday, I am sure that the calm of the Tuesday morning filled your mind with a sense of peace.. Am I wrong in my presumption ? 🙂
LOVE YOU LOADS! Take care, and have many such lovely moments during the day as well.. MWAH!

August 17, 2010 at 12:35 pm
I’m not sure why, but when I read this, a wonderful laugh wanted to rise up and escaped. Perhaps it was the delight of the warrioress who realizes what she conquered. This haiku reeks of accomplishment, in both theme and delivery.
Nice one, Amanda!
August 17, 2010 at 2:03 pm
You have nailed it with your comment!!! Spot on my friend….sending you love dear one xx

Your biggest fan,
Tracy

Wink…thanks my friend xx
August 17, 2010 at 11:28 pm
This impresses me, Amanda. I find haiku very difficult to write effectively, which is exactly what you’ve done here. Very very nice! 😀
August 18, 2010 at 5:58 am
Thank Tony, Haiku’s are not easy but such fun!! Happy you enjoyed. Have a great day! Awesome weather!! Hugs x
August 18, 2010 at 12:22 am
Whenever I’m alone- just by myself in silence, I feel like I’m made of ideas and fantasies more than flesh and bones.
This was amazing Amanda, thank you for sharing! 🙂
August 18, 2010 at 5:59 am
The feeling is mutual dear friend….so happy you enjoyed it. Hugs x

The simplicity of the words play wonderfully against the complexity of the subject matter. Beautiful haiku, thanks for posting it on Poetry Potluck.

And you should be 🙂 🙂 🙂 xxx
October 5, 2010 at 9:58 am
The haiku is such a delicate form, and you have done it well, from my perspective, as a non-haikuist– I’ve never dared. The illustration is phenomenal!
October 5, 2010 at 12:41 pm
I am so much more comfortable with Haiku now, not at first but with anything, the more you practice, the better it becomes. xxxx
October 5, 2010 at 10:30 am
Dear Buttercup…
My favorite form of poetry is Haiku and this one is so powerful and emotions are so strong in this.. I could picturise this immediately… thanks for sharing…
