FordVerse: Tuesday Poetics: Fay Collins revisited. – Wrote a haiku for this painting by Fay Collins. As a tropical woman born in the lovely Philippine archipelago, I have been missing my home country’s salted water and pristine sand. Praying for homecomings next year.
a very etherial feel to this one Rosma, do hope you get home soon. My brother was locked out over there, in the Philippines …

I love how so many wrote about the seaweed or kelp beneath… it feels like a pull into death.

That red in the middle of your poem is so unexpected, Rosema – I was startled by it.
