Hi gypsy, I didn't know about the books but will start reading them right now. Once more your poem reeks with image! Most enjoyable and it will be good to read work that was created by yourself and Dean . Giddy ð?¦?

Comment from Janice Canerdy
Ohhh, you have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this 5-7-5
that has a phantom following someone on a bitter-cold snowy night.
The artwork is quite apt.

A very well-written horror haiku. About being chilled to the bone us quite an eerie feeling. Our winters here can get that cold that it feels the coldness made their home inside your bones.

Comment from rama devi
Great tribute to Dean, dear. Reminds me of him (fondly). He had planned to hire me to edit a book with tons of poems, but left before we started. Sigh. What a talent he was. And you are too. This has such fantastic phonetics, revealing your keen sense of the music of words (which Dean had in spades). I especially applaud the subtle harmony between cousin P and B sounds in counterpoint with alliterated C and S and consonance of S, L, and P as well as assonance of E.
STEP-LESS SNOW PATH - great satori! Implying scariness for sure!
Warmly,

Thank you very much, Rama Devi, I appreciate your kind words and detailed feedback. Dean told me about his plan to hire you. He had great respect for you. Thank you very much for the six stars. Have a wonderful day.

Aw, thanks. That's nice to hear. I've wondered if I should contact his family and offer my services, if they want someone to sort and organize his poems into a book. But, since I do not know them, I opted not to.
Have a glorious day!
Warmly,

Gypsy,
Yep, your dark gothic-like Haiku comes forth in this verse. Had you written this with a Russian perspective, then with a play on words, your last line would become: his steppe-less snowed path (-;
You chose good colors for your entry as a companion to your artwork.

My go color theme is black with white font... it fits well for dark poetry and pictures with dark edges. Classic haiku is usually lighter. I love playing with color and pictures. Sometimes I add sound.
I don't get the Russian reference. You speak Russian? I don't know if I told you, I was born in Spain so I speak Castilian Spanish.
Thank you very much for the review and kind feedback.
There is a Romanian story behind the horror haiku that Dean and I wrote.
Have a great weekend.
Gypsy
PS. What is the name of your children's book?
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
There is nothing like fear to keep us awake and fear of the unknown is always present and at night it seems all consuming and stops us from sleeping, a chilling write, I enjoyed the atmospherics here, love Dolly x

Comment from Gloria ....
Oohhh, that is spooky. I wonder how he is making the path, seeing as how he is leaving no foot prints. That means he must be hovering somehow.
Excellent horror haiku, Gypsy and many thanks for a skeery read.

The stepless path is because he is dead and only the memory lives in her heart.,.she remembers the steps he left when he was alive.

Hello Gypsy Blue Rose
your contemporary Haiku , drew my full attention to your quick thought of how it would feel the chill and hear the oncoming foot steps on the shoved path.
