Beatles Song

     August 27 NaHaiWrimo prompt is "Beatles song", provided by Johannes S. H. Berg. I enjoyed this prompt very much because as I was writing my haiku, I was listening to the Fab Four on PBS. I also realized any song of the Beatles has a line which can be created into a haiku. So, for the first time, I posted three haiku.
  

strawberry fields
her lipstick marks 
on a love letter

(Strawberry Fields Forever)


first kiss
fragrant meadows 
of dawn

(Till There Was You)


autumn moon
speaking words of wisdom
let it be

(Let It Be)

August Blog Bash, Day 6

     Today's feature for August Blog Bash 2012 is yours truly. I'm sharing two of my favorite works, which I hope all of Kathy Uyen Nguyen's followers will enjoy.  

       The first one is my "Fairy Moon." Among the numerous cross stitch designs I've diligently worked on, this is my favorite. I used to sew a lot and was hooked on adding sparkly beads to my cross stitch designs. This took the longest to finish. But like magic, it turned out more enchanting than I expected.    

       The next one has something to do with magic, too. It's my first published children's story entitled The Magic Paintbrush. I still can't believe that it's the #1 Top 7 knowonder! stories (as voted by readers). I think Alexa has something to do with it. ;-)

       Please read Kathy Uyen Nguyen's write-up for Day 6 here and check out the daily posts to discover all the authors/artists featured for the whole month. So far, I've been very impressed with these recent contributers: S. M. Abeles (Day 1), Jessica Tremblay (Day 2), Johannes S. H. Bjerg (Day 3), Lana Phillips (Day 4), and Stella Pierides (Aug. 5).
