Visually adroit, this seemingly simple Bruce Clay Jewett haiku below makes use of a bowl, citrus fruits, a plain curtain entertaining a shining sun to celebrate a still life with words. Enjoy. And save one tangerine for me.

“A Dear Lady Leads…Again”
She says “Voice” and I

*(originally “vice” but even I know not what five sure that means so I changed it to a cognate. The last four words are key as I believe the eye, heart and soul are but a part of the stylus and its driver. Oops: gotta remember to transcribe to the notebook! Thanks, J: sometimes you are all right!)
“in reply to b.c. jewett post – 885”

my knuckles, et al., do not!
shudda used a board!

“Another ‘Juice-y’ Reply-ish Retort”
