Bio Sketch
Lafcadio is a writer and poet living in eastern Tennessee. Her haiku, senyru, tanka and haibun have been exhibited in journals and anthologies. During the full moon she dreams of rabbits.
L1 sets the seasonal context while the use of synaesthesia/sense-switching in Ls 2&3, the "sound" of " 'breezy' 'sunshine', " enhances the tone and mood of the haiku.
ReplyDeleteA new day/L1, hopefully, a new beginning (because of/implication of Ls 2&3)
