  10. I love the simplicity of a good haiku ... yours is simply wonderful!

    Thank you for paying me a visit .... From the little I've read it wasn't always happy for Edward and Wallis when it came to their public and political lives ... I am going to pick up both of their autobiographies at the library later this week. I am intrigued with their story.

  11. Great Haiku! I love it. What, indeed, is the point? I think it's a case of much ado about nothing.
