Thank you Tom. Yes, I think he knows how much I love him. He is very special.

Nice. He, himself, is better than what he created/ gave. He is the real gift. I love the words "picked out." The purple background is a great match for the thistle.

Thistle flowers are beautiful.
Haiku need to be set out with 5 syllables in first line, seven syllables in second line, and five syllables in third line.
It is still a sweet poem, but not quite ready for a contest.
Warm regards.

Thank you for your comments and pointing out that I had left out a word in the second line. I always run my poems through a counter but obviously need a proof reader beside myself. :o). I have corrected and made the poem 5-7-5.
