This is very cleverly done...the way you interspersed the children's notes between the haiku....and enjoyable to read.
ReplyDeleteHa! From the children's perspective, you have created such innocent and humorous haiku. Delightful read. :-)
ReplyDeleteGood to be back at your junction...
-HA
Thanks !
DeleteHa, I would guess there are a lot of kids who have expressed the desire for a puppy to replace a baby brother or a sister for a while anyway. LOL. I enjoyed your creativity in these writes.
ReplyDeleteI love the responses with the children letters to God ~ The last one really made me smile ~

Good to hear !
DeleteTranslations of letters. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these!
ReplyDeleteThese letters are adorable. And the commentary exquisite.
ReplyDeleteI love these letters, and the accompanying poems. But are you sure that God isn't Canadian? :)
ReplyDeleteDid you write the letters too? The combination of letter and haiku is mighty fine, poignant, fun.
