Thank you Michael! This haiku was in part inspired by Ruskin whose words often follow me in nature. The Highlands are magical. Thank you for stopping by and have a great rest of the day :o)

Thank you! I especially enjoyed Ruskin’s ‘Iteriad’, as we lived in the Lake District ourselves for eight years. I visited his former home at Lake Coniston many times and his ‘inspiration room’ which held many crystals and ‘miniature mountains’.

Thanks. I will give it a read. Hopefully easier to read than Robbie Burns.
