    Good day Maggie, what a joy to read this wonderful haiku you have composed on 'strangers', really I like that 'crossroads' idea. Thank you for sharing and welcome at Carpe Diem. I am your host for this daily haiku meme.
    Hope to see you here again.

      Thank you, Gemma! While writing, the word "crossroads" popped into my head and I had to look it up. Inner wisdom :)

      Thank you for visiting and haiku comment! I am not so brave. My husband and I married less than a year ago after an 11 year courtship. Our age doesn't compute to internal perspective but we are 60. We will be "until death do us part". We met by chance/fate on an internet dating site.

      We met by destiny at the library. Long story.
      Here's to happily ever after.

      Cheers!

      Thank you, Maliny, for your touching comment. I never know if my haiku is good. It just flows and I rarely "play" with it. Lovely affirmation from you!
