  4. You poem leads me to think that the pen is going to write something now. i love the idea that the words do not stop on the page but go on ahead into the imagination. I also love cherry blossoms.

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Anne and so lovely to see where the poem takes you. Returning from a walk, I wanted to write about the cherry blossom I had seen. When I dipped my fountain pen into the inkwell and pulled the leaver to fill it with ink, this little ritual became a ‘haiku moment’ in itself 💖✍ xxx
