Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem about leaning over from the wheelchair to touch a rose us quite an effort for someone in a wheelchair to do without either falling forward or let the chair slips out underneath you.

Fortunately, I haven't been confined to a wheelchair myself, but I have pushed many people confined to one and they undergo a lot of difficulties. Your comments are right on target and I appreciate them very much, Sandra!

Comment from thaities, Rebecca V.
Wonderful poem!
It's innate to love beauty. The old, feeble, disabled, sick, even children are pleased with beautiful things or smells. The majority of people appreciate beauty whether or not they think about it.

Comment from Aussie
Beautiful. I see the world from my wheelchair, I see many beautiful things that you do not. I smell the flowers, pat a small dog, see a crack in the concrete that maybe I will get caught in. Leaning Over caught my eye, because wheelie's see a different world to you. Love, K.

Thoughts of you really did come to mind as I was writing this, my friend. (With all those fires happening nearby, you were still able to share some wonderful postings. That's a spirit of loveliness equal to anything found in the natural world.) xo

Thank you my dear friend. Many lessons are learned when power is taken away and instead, wisdom takes it's place. Love, Kay.
Comment from RShipp
Such a great mental picture you have created with so few words.
I can see (in my mind) a little old lady who doesn't get out often enjoying the rose garden.
Best of luck in the Haiku Poetry Contest contest.

Comment from duchessofdrumborg
(leaning over) minimal format, is short,succinct and very much to the to the point. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. I look forward to seeing your next post.

I have updated the posting so it has a different name now. The haiku takes a change in direction but the emotional content is the same. Thank you for a wonderful review! :-)

Spangle,
you're more than welcome.
God bless and best wishes,

Comment from Sanku
I did not know that the contest allowed minimum syllable count .Anyway In thirteen syllables you were able to present a very poignant picture .Disability is not a problem for enjoying nature.

Your comment about enjoying nature is so true. Even when we're down, seeing something beautiful can be an uplift when it is needed the most. Thank you so much for this super review!

Hello Janet. The picture you made for this is really interesting. The message from the haiku is graphic and mentally visible for the reader. Good luck in the contest

So glad to see that you are writing again. I love your quote about the lady who touches a rose from her wheelchair. I must ask if you alright after the tornado in TN last night.
