    These are wonderful, Dom - I especially like the last one. They all evoke the emotion so well.

    Fabulous haiku, Dom. Or is the plural 'haikus'? I don't think so, somehow.
    I can't seem to write a thing these days. I really enjoy your skill and (seemingly, from this side of the pond) effortless output. Your work gives me hope. Thanks.

    I enjoy your writing even though I am at a loss as to how to comment on haikus.
