Moats of Pride
 
Moats of pride
all around her heart;
no drawbridge..

Ant's  castle;
Eleph fears crossing
weak drawbridge...

    Yes, I miss Nanka as well!

    I love the visual with this Haiku. No bridge to cross into her heart. Makes me lonely.

    Peace

    "Moats of pride" I like these words. We so often create those. I enjoyed both of these haiku very much.

    Great haiku, the imagery is very potent... However, I think that you are a magician with words and could find a way in... thought of you this week and hope you have continued to heal and have done well after your bicycle encounter last Friday.
