Hi Gypsy,
Haibun is a beautiful form of delivery... prose with a conclusion of a Haiku to wrap it up in a perfect bow.
The imagery you brought forward throughout your prose had me pondering in the thought of... right to the end with... I held it tenderly close to my heart and silently I said 'goodbye'...
Then your beautiful haiku came into allow the whole Haibun to float just as the dust travels through a ray of dark sun... specks of memories suspended and held within a timeless connection of the heart.
I haven't seen too many Haibun's since returning to site... and I find something very special about them that lingers in mind's eye. You read the story and then you are hit so softly with words that don't seem to end, even though the reading is finished. I find that the sign of a magic connection with the words and intention written.
A beautiful presentation and composition Gypsy, and I thoroughly enjoyed every step of the journey written within... mmmmmm((((((((.
With our thoughts we create...
passages of pastel.
Kind regards,
James.

Thank you very much for your exceptional six stars review and the interpretation of my words. It's a pleasure when someone gets the true meaning of my poems
...a vehicle for emotions of ..love, lust, sadness, yearning...I think we all yearn for something.
You are a gifted weaver of words, Lord James. Your reviews are very special to me.

Comment from Gloria ....
You have reminded me how much I enjoy the haibun form. The romance and tears of lost lust that had once meant so much must now dance to the tune of time.
Very well done, and a great read this warm summer evening. :))

Comment from Jasmine Girl
What a nice Haibun! I like both prose and the poem, especially the poem. You have made the old dusty flower and love letter alive. The last line "dancing to the tone of the life" is great.
Well done.

Beautiful haibun, Gypsy. You captured the reluctance to let go of those precious "mementos" of "lost lust." This is why I hate going through my old junk - it would take me years to review and categorize that stuff!

Yes, Helen, it's hard to let go. I have moved so much that all my possessions fit in my bedroom. My most valuable items are my son's paintings. I'll try to put them on Facebook so you can see them. He is a professional painter. Since I moved to the USA, I have moved 25 times! Thus my nickname.... Gypsy.
Thank you very much for your time and kind review.

Ah! That's both hard but also keeps you free. I see that art flows in your blood! You had a famous uncle painter, right?
Comment from Ulla
Absolutely, Marival. The haibun, I think, is my favourite poetry form of all. It leaves you room for your thoughts in a short and concise form of prose, to be be summed up in a haiku. You did that beautifully. Un abrazo. Ulla:)))

Comment from LateBloomer
Hello Gypsy, Excellent writing. This poem is so heartfelt. I could feel the emotion within. Of special note:
dust travels
through a ray of dark sun
(Fantastic imagery)
Gypsy, I'm all out of Sixers, please accept my virtual six. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer
