I love your haikus, Jaya, they are so pertinent and on point (which I know is the point of a haiku but still). This one is particularly relevant right now, I think we’re all realising and reevaluating our family and friendships. Lisa x

I love the imagery in this piece – kind of made me think of how even friendships that through the years faded, there is still like that ~single thread~ of that friendship in the “blanket” of a person’s life if that makes sense while for friendships that last, it’s more or less entwined more into the blanket 🙂
