Are you in Japan now? Then it is quite apt to write a haiku. True, anything from the place where you once lived will arouse a warm feeling when it is seen in a foreign land.

on 2nd thought, America is unique because of its blacks,
not because of whites. this uniqueness is getting more
and more obvious in American History as time moves
along. I don't feel homesick when hearing whites speaking
English, but did so when it's blacks. Interesting?

I was wondering why you used "hear" instead of "see". Now I know why.

also, to me hearing meant (carry such effect) a past memory approaching,
seeing or sighting meant a vision present or into the future

I prefer hear here even both arrived at about the same time
while I was waiting and crossing streets.

thanks for all comments. Wink
