Welcome at Carpe Diem Sumana, I am glad that you've found your way to this Haiku Kai. Your haiku is very nice crafted. I like that personal touch in it (Mom's basil). Thank you for sharing. I hope to see you here again. By the way ... I am your host at Carpe Diem.
that's quite an image you have chosen! and a lovely verse - the basil is an interesting addition..
ReplyDeletethanks Joanne for the nice comment.........that basil bit is a Hindu belief of keeping food pure during eclipse. :)
