I wanted to post three days of my #Haikus from Twitter formatted, edited and with links to the pictures. Not only can I get them into columns, but there seems to be an extra space between each line, so this will be an unpleasant blog-post. If you struggle though, thanks so much. I am sorry I’ve been so derelict in my updating, but life is now. (HMMM, sounds like a Haiku)
