Dear Haijin, visitors and travelers,

You all have submitted wonderful haiku in tribute for Jane Reichhold and I am grateful for that and she would be proud too.
The Winner of this Tribute kukai for Jane Reichhold with 14 points is Candy with the following haiku:
morning walk
trailing behind me
only footprints

the temptation
at the chalk cliff top
I throw a rose

Candy's haiku really stood out. Very well done but also beautifully simple. And that secret simplicity is always a winner. Simple in style and small, not dealing with the whole universe. Great stuff.
