this haiku struck me in a very personal way. Connections seems stretched at the moment.

Do you know all the people behind the faces you sketch? Just curious. You have courage to sketch.
I like the Haiku. I have been on these bluffs as well as seen them from Redondo Beach. Very nice.

Peace

Your sketches are brilliant. Faces are so difficult to get right. Lord knows I can't do it! :)

Irene,
I am captured by the haunting nature of the eyes in all of your sketches. there is a great deal of soul and longing there. Much like the waiting of which you speak. Beautiful and poignant. Your photographs of natural settings are stunning, like small paintings.
