Short but so powerful,this poem truly sparks a feeling within.
Well, here I am taking a page out of the Cindy Calder book and doing a deep dive on a Vocal writer. What better author to be my first deeper dive? This is a strong haiku. "Whisper soft upon the skin" is beautiful and tactile. I felt it. Not as strong as goose bumps, but exactly the way you wrote it - it's like a ghost of a feeling. Lovely and very well done!
A beautiful haiku, Cindy! Definitely would place if I were the judge.
This evokes both the candles light and heat, Cindy! Good luck on the challenge!
Soft and glowing in the quietest way. It feels like a secret moment captured without trying too hard. Really lovely! 💖
Soft, gentle like a caress.
This felt so reassuring. Loved your Haiku!
