    I too appreciate May Sarton, especially her lessons on living well alone. And this week your macro thumbnail was intriguing. I was surprised that this lovely design had been created in the sand by mother nature--it does look like spare tree branches. Your Halloween sketch is so joyful. Enjoy the last of fall color but luckily as the seasons move forward there's always beauty.

    Hi Carol, Is your haiku about the brewing storm in the US? I hope that it won't be as bad as predicted.
    I am the bearer of good news (I hope so anyway!)- you won an ATC from me. Please send your email address to patsy.paterno (at) gmail.com so I can send it off to you!

    Cool beach shot. It really does look like trees after the winds have blown all the leaves of the trees. Stay dry and warm-hearted through the storms.

    Hi, Carol. Hope danger is already over.
    A very appropriate haiku for the time being; sly mother nature, yes... sometimes a cruel stepmother more than a tender mom.
