haiku # 206

 

bitter wind encroaches

trees flinch in abandonment

leaves become orphans

Lately, we have been raking up an awful lot of orphans
A bit of government funding could go a long way

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Good luck getting that....the parties will never agree to that or anything for that matter.

You have just painted in words Jacob, the sight I see every morning as I open the door or look out the window, while wishing I stated in bed! 😊

[jacob erin-cilberto]

This haiku makes me think of how cruel winter can be. The trees left naked after the leaves have left the embrace of those upper limbs. Scattered on the cold ground . Wonderful imagery, yet this little haiku speaks to me about relationships of the human kind. Now they can make you shiver too. Great brevity j.
