A Little Haiku in the Night


The touch of your hand
soft at the nape of my neck:
electrifying.

This is my response to the January 3 prompt at Haiku Bones. I'm a bit late, but I'm struggling to catch up on my blogroll, so I never saw the prompt until tonight!

Like it. A directly sensual haiku - quite unusual.

Nice one, Sandra! I think haiku are the hardest poems to write.

Your poem is lovely.
Also, enjoyed your story in the last post.
I need to dig out my Goldberg book.

Sandra Leigh,
Thank you so much for visiting my blog. Lightning rod for cats . . . great idea. You know, I never really noticed a static problem until this year. Forgot to mention on my first visit how much I like that picture/header. It's great! Thanks again for visiting and leaving a comment. Come see me anytime.
