This is one of the few times I love a single haiku! Usually I feel a sense that what's been said isn't complete, I want more, but here you've nailed the crux of these short Japanese formats . . . making a statement thru imagery with a change of direction for the last line. You've done this perfectly & what you're word painting is truly delicious! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

[Chris Shaw]

Thank you Margie. Believe it or not quite alot of work has to go into these. Pleased you liked the flavour of this one.

Are you trying to make me hungry so early in my morning? It has set me drooling just thinking of it. Such a delicious Haiku.

[Chris Shaw]

Thank you Soren. I love the haiku and senryu format. A wonderful way to be visual and often give a story as well with such brevity. I appreciate your thoughts.

...oh but it does! Now to hunt down some peaches to complete that visual with some gustatory delight. Thanks Chris!

Thanks Freds. An old poem out for an airing. I do like the haiku and senryu structure. I appreciate your visit.

Uh, miss! My peach melba is frozen not only to the dish, but to the spoon and my hand!
Hi Chris,
That is because we have snow due today and the thermometer has went so low that it just shattered on the floor!
I swear, I'm just getting on a plane to anywhere warmer until spring shows its face round these here parts.
But thanks for the pic in my mind of warm sunsets. I shall take that pic with me on my escape from the cold! 😊

[Chris Shaw]

It has turned chilly down here too Lorry. Hope you don’t get snow. Keep those warm sunsets in mind. Hope you and your Katie are top of the world. Thanks for checking in.

[Lorry]

No snow as of yet, but buddy cold! 😊

The imagery here is great! And also makes me very, very hungry. ): This is a great haiku, and I can tell plenty of work when into this, just like always! Just because haikus are short, doesn't make them any lesser than a 100-page poem (if those even exist?? Lol I doubt it)

[Chris Shaw]

Thank you Colacat for your lovely review. Much appreciated.
