"Then you need to write stories to go with your jewelry.”
That’s a unique twist, but a whole story! So I decided on Japanese poetry, the haiku. I’ve always been drawn to things that are short and to the point. In English, the haiku is a 17-syllable verse, written in three lines of 5 -7 -5 syllables. When I’m working on a necklace, I let my mind wander, and write a verse to go with the piece. Here are some of my favorites:
The little girl ran
Home from the state fair with a
Turquoise candy cane.
Black Turtle found the
Treasure chest, and made fast friends
With the fetish drops.
Treasure chest, and made fast friends
With the fetish drops.
I wait for Martin's
Song, near the backyard feeder.
Summer has arrived.
