By way of celebrating acquiring my 100th follower, here is a thought-provoking competition, open to all Tales from a Toymaker followers.
I've been playing around with haiku poems lately, which are great fun, so all you have to do is compose a haiku and leave it as a comment.
No specific theme.... it can be about anything - blogging, miniatures, the weather.......whatever you like.
For non-haiku enthusiasts, the haiku format consists of just three lines.
first line, 5 syllables
second line, 7 syllables
third line, 5 syllables
For example,
Wonderful small dog,
chrysanthemum head of fur.
Daily you make me smile.
Simple eh? Go on......have a go.
I'll put all haiku-composer's names in a hat and draw the winner at random on 30th September.
And the prize....?

I must be mad but...here's my offering:
Small dog keeps her sane
Takes rather more really but
The small dog knows best
....and I'd really love the doll
Robin
Ok here's my attempt with the help of Small Dog of course.
Was a pretty doll
Lucy chewed it plenty though
Now it's rather broke!
