A HAIKU CHAIN by Susan L. Daniels and Noel A. Ihebuzor
it echoes–
this pause before words
weighted breath
It speaks loud
the empty spaces
between words
those moments
minds falter before
sharing truth
*** A haiku conversation between my duet duet partner and I. Came about after I commented on the main poem she wrote. Susan’s Haiku is in normal font, mine is italicized.

truth haltered
for so long, now free
freeing tears!
and so it continues–gorgeous, DP!
and floating
on that salt river
soft releasing
I will add a clumsy verse
hidden fears
uncertainties now
flowing away
tumbling down
tongue now unleashed to
wonder why
Nothing clumsy about your verse, ever, N!
OVER TO YOU, DUET PARTNER and energizer!
Oh, you are a true inspiration, Noel! Like a shot of vitamin B-12 for energy. Going to start calling you vitamin N 😉
