A great selection. I've experienced the middle one quite a few times.
Yes, and that baby will show father more gold. I like the series a lot.
Dad had a small collection of hematite rocks. He would tell kids they were gold. We soon figured it out, maybe Mom told us.
Was our wonder pure gold to him?

I love the thought of gold and other 'precious' stones (like hematite!) snuggling in the dark!
Thank you, Miz Tumblewords...
Very nice variety of interpretations of the prompt. I'm a rock hound, so I really lke the last one!
Some excellent examples of gold Sue and lovely painting to accompany. Hugs, G

I love all three of these for different reasons. Your art is beautiful, as usual, Sue. Do you do it with software?
I can connect with all of these very well. I love rocks; I love the way they feel and looking at them - searching for them, so that last one is a true gem! pun intended.
How I fall for that fool's gold every time! The second one brought back priceless memories. And the third opened my mind very nicely. Thanks.
Each haiku is a precious golden nugget of thought! Loved all of these!
A smile is sure to be a breath-taking sight, especially when it's a genuine one. Great Haiku, Sue!
.."a rock hound!"_knows where the gold is-wonderful poems..many thanks..
Give me that pure gold any time. But, lacking that, I'll settle for the fool's gold. An enjoyable, whimsical series. The fractal is stunning.
All vibrant word pictures.
Baby's First Smile is my favorite. :)
Love your ‘haiku’ on this theme … and the fractal as well. Simply beautiful!
Hugs and blessings,
