Aw, she needs to lighten up, dip that tortilla in a pot of frijoles, and savor the flavor of love mixed with masa harina and beans!

Fabulosa Calavera! I love her hair and her dress! Holy fire! Goodness, sounds like judgment day. What a wild woman. I love the warmth of the kitchen, the pot on the stove with the red flame beneath, the crucifix, the wonderful stove that I wish I had. Beautiful Haiku! Thanks Rebecca. Such Artistry and humor.
xoxo,
Noelle

I love the holy fire part, and the image is priceless, my friend. Very nice, Rebecca! :)

Hiya Rebecca,
She may be wearing a garment matching the kimono of the Japanese lady, but serenity is lacking :-)
I'd love to know what is behind your art work here.
Thanks for organizing something so cheery each week.

This is my second week to participate, and I am really enjoying setting the muse free on Friday mornings. Thank you so much for hosting this creative and fun poetry fest!:)

Oh, dear, I posted two links! One is the current week's haiku (#11) and, somehow, I managed to post last week's as well (#12). I must remember that Mr. Linky is sometimes slow!

As always, I love the Los Dios de Los Muertos artwork you post. I hope I can stop saying "someday" and visit and see all these beautiful works, and you, in person. I love the depiction of every day life, and the connection your haiku makes to that effect. With her display above her stove, she seems to always be in the holy fire.
Good to be back, thanks for your welcome home.
Peace.

rebecca- That is my favorite of yours so far. An entire story in those three lines.
I don't have the whatever-it-takes today to do a haiku. I am sorry.
But I love you anyway.
