Summer Breeze


summer breeze
shadows in the moonlight
rock the boat    



       Above is one of my two haiku (found poems) appearing in Aubrie Cox's latest project Fool's Paradise.

       Here's the link again in case you've missed my previous post regarding the free download of this wonderful collection.
       By the way, I'd like to take this chance to invite you to visit Aubrie Cox's blog Yay Words!. There's a doodleku going on! No, it's not her doodles. This January, you can 'ku to HM Yuan's doodles. I haven't jump in yet (not even sure if I'm doing it this time), but you can start catching up by clicking this. Enjoy!

Fool's Paradise (A Christmas Gift from Aubrie Cox)

     Just when I thought I had unwrapped all my gifts on Christmas eve, I received a wonderful present through the internet - Aubrie Cox's latest project Fool's Paradise!


     I waited for the next morning to unravel this delightful treat. It was worth all the wait! Aubrie put together another splendid collection, but this time she gathered found poems using song titles and/or band names. Isn't that unique or what? 
     Among her projects on Yay Words!, this is the most challenging to me. I spent some time racking my brains to come up with something good. Thank goodness for my muse, I came up with a haiku that I'm very fond of.
