  5. A really super set Emma. I love the way you have transformed the image and given it texture and dimension...

  6. I like the two edged sword that some of the other comments have picked up as well.

    Is the weight of the apple enough to topple you over, or is the weight of the apple enough to ground you?

    Your postcard gives ambience rather than directing my interpretation. I do like the effect of font and angle.

  10. Cheers folk!

    Yes Blutoque, the apple did get tossed into those clouds. How could anyone possibly resist? Gravity is too much fun.

    Or was it an apple? Ralf, you may have something here.

  11. I liked this one too, and it seems like a variation on your other haiku - also by the cliff. Nothing wrong in that.

  14. I like this. So existential in it's way. So many directions this can take the mind in.
