Peel me carefully
Memories sting, unlayered
Wild child, wiser now

I love your fall theme to essay to haiku…but this haiku is tender and true!🌰
Thank you, Jennifer–it was a lovely walk yesterday with lots of inspiration!😊
The chestnut has been reminding me of the buckeye of Ohio, I just learned of same family…….memories come with sweet ramblings.
Wow! That haiku is absolutely B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!! Tranformation, growth, maturity — not a painless process. But rich. Worth the struggle. I think that’s one of the most beautiful haikus I have ever read in my whole life! Write a book!!!!!
Thank you; that means a lot, coming from you, my friend of the sublime poetic mind.😊
