Haiku In Bloom
The plums bloom
The nightingale sings, and yet...
I feel alone
Work in progress
A Mirror to Myself
When I read this haiku, I mirrored it to myself.
Colorful plums, red, yellow, and orange, refer to my children who brought new color to my life after a very difficult period. To the tones of the nightingale’s song, I float on its wings to a new future. Despite the colors, the beautiful singing, and the swaying wings, I sometimes feel lonely. That one green flower among the beautiful colors.
