Tribute to Jane Reichhold (1937-2016)
the haiku and tanka connoisseur (here)
(Jane was also accomplished 
in pottery and doll-making)

Standing tall above
the rest regal in stature
buoyantly smiling
endowed with talents rightly
acknowledged in her lifetime

For Chev's Carpe Diem #1052 - happiness

    It's good to stand tall, but when one gets too full of themselves it's a mighty long fall

    Ah to be so charmed happens to few and a glory to behold.

    A fitting tribune. To have our success acknowledged in our lifetime is nice.
