For those in love:
On top of the world
Looking down on creation
Love’s light everywhere
For those in lust:
Turn the lights down low
Pull me close, whisper secrets
Tear this top from me…
For those who have both… don’t brag about it! 🙂

When I read the first haiku, I almost started singing The Carpenters song “I’m on the top of the world looking down on creation and the only explanation I can find…..” 😀

Beautiful Al!
When I read this in my reader, I only had the picture and the first haiku, and I thought… “Hmm… Al’s gone where I would have!”
Then I read the second Haiku and thought, “Ooh, now he’s really gone there”
And then I read your very last sentence.
Ok, I won’t brag then 😛

First I “awwwwed,” then I “oohed,” then I thought “lucky buggers,” which was followed up with a guffaw.
