~~~
you look at me
a poem in your glance
shining silence
~~~
lamp and light
eternal conversation
darkness flees
~~~
the widow listens
sitting on empty bed
feeling him in her bones
~~~
rain and earth
in conversational embrace
seedlings sprout

Carpe Diem prompt – Conversation
“the widow listens” is the strongest of this set. Really powerful and poignant. Well done.
Thanks so much Lolly.
I agree with Lolly. The widow…I felt that one.
Thanks Maggie.
the widow listens
sitting on empty bed
feeling him in her bones
This is really a wonderful haiku … strong emotions … and deep conversation. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much Chevrefeuille.
I love the idea that the widow, feeling him in her bones, is communicating with her beloved, and him with her! Beautiful take on the prompt.
Thank you so much WabiSabi.
these are really quite wonderful
the widow made me shiver
Cheers!
