thank you, tony, for the positive comments and for taking the time to make them. seeing my granddaughter do this yesterday brought a smile to my heart and face- which is why i wrote the poem.
if you're not familiar with the haiku poet issa, i highly recommend him (particularly as he's translated in the anthology the essential haiku. issa has a tenderness towards living things i think you'll enjoy.
also, i commented on your poem and hope you got it. i sent it but didn't see it posted, but maybe i'm being impatient. i liked it- how many senses are called to the imagination. i made one suggestion since most of the poem is in the present tense- that is that you begin it with i sit instead of i sat.
also, your poem reminds me of one by dylan thomas which i think you'll like, if you don't know it already. it begins, in my craft or sullen art. mercy and peace be yours in abundance! -glen kappy
