In conversation, I prefer Christopher. My mom named me after Christopher Robin, after all. In writing, I use “C L Couch” (or, more simply, “c l couch”) because the form is genderless and also frankly easier to use. I have awful writer’s cramp. I am an educator more or less retired, more or less due to disability. At present, I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (USA). My writing here I mean to be occasional and also devotional. Either or both. The banner and profile photographs are by my friend and peer Debra Danielson. More of Debbie’s work to be enjoyed is at debradanielson.org. Thanks to each of you and both and all for coming to my blog.

Dear Christopher, first of all, thank you for commenting on my blog from time to time, that always makes me very happy. And so I would like to leave a comment on your blog today. I love haikus and this one enchants me with its simplicity. In its simple intensity and truth. Thank you very much.

Manuela, hi, and thanks for your comment! I truly appreciate your affirmation of my try at haiku. I certainly like your site and have shared it with friends who live in Germany. I’m glad you share so much that’s happening that we may attend and enjoy. I find your own work impressive and admirable. Your use of color, texture, and shape is wonderful. Thanks again!
