just the sight of you...
ten thousand sequins shimmer,
your heart, brighter still
***
this week my heart is all wrapped up in mexico.
i am not alone.
twenty seven women whose lives have been touched by the
generosity of this charming culture have
created a gallery, a house of collective dreams.
it is that simple.
mexico has profoundly enriched our lives and we
in return want to give back.
here is an invitation to our
to each of you, helping us raise the roof of love
with your generous bids...
today's haiku my heart
is dedicated to you.

This is such a delightful post, and such an excellent project too. I wish everyone well with it.
Take care.
Best wishes from Boonie and Mrs S

Dear Sweet Rebecca,
It is late and I am almost too tired to say anything intelligible, but know that I love you, I am here for you, we will raise that roof and we will all do it together. I will comment again tomorrow.
All My Love,
Noelle (past midnight oh my!)

Dear Rebecca,
As I've made the journey from blog to blog this morning, I am filled with gratitude for you, the gentle hostess of Haiku My Heart. It is you who have brought us all together word by word, image by image, heart by heart.
O thank you!
