That “leave and cleave” hits hard! This should be on a tea towel or something...
A lot of truth to this
Great advice!!
Yay, the first year is Lol!!!
Lol, that's sage advice. Loved your Haiku!
Loved Nagoh’s response. I believe this is the most sensual Haiku I have ever read. Well done, Rowan!
I want to go camping now. Not with my parents though. Haha.
