dream catcher protects
nightmares stay in its meshes
only sweet dreams pass

you have illustrated the beauty of haiku....economical poignancy....well done
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

Appreciate your comment and the analysis of a true (to me!) haiku. I am preparing a bilingual book. Here is the first haiku:

1.

verses come in dreams
pure delicate images
waking me to write

and one of my funniest haiku (because I love humour in my poems):

51.

striped black tail aloft
he pivots on two front feet
loads aims fires pure reek
