Thanks, Alan! Sometimes I find in English certain notions should be one word. This is one of them for me. I'm kind of in two minds about call or calls. I've added an 's'. I think either version works, albeit in a different way. Funny, isn't it, how just one letter can keep you preoccopied.

Warm regards,
Marjolein

I have been quiet over the weekend. The reason? I was at the most lovely haiku festival in Belgium, the Festival van het Maankonijn (moon rabbit), where I was one of the ten nominees. No top3, but for me the prize was being there and seeing my five haiku as tanzuka in the hawthorn hedge.
Translation:
clouds are animals
learning to look again
with children's eyes

A big thanks to curator Geert De Kockere!

I'm delighted that my haiga on black-eyed Susan's is published in the Enchanted Garden Haiku Journal - Issue 4. The theme is 'sparkles, yellow'. A big thanks to Steliana Voicu for the translation into Romanian and the great editing job.
