Some Haiku for… What?

October 18, 2007

Like flowers left
on the desk
of a hopeful friend…

Dear Sen. Obama, I thought you might appreciate these Haiku:

Three AM
quiet tears –
people suffer for truth

***

work-a-day
head down –
storm gathers

***

The weary soldier rests by a stream.
The tired employee pauses from work.
Silently the loving voice of truth speaks.

***

The words of the Founders
lift themselves from dusty books
and firmly clasp the hands of the people

***

at the podium
the politician suddenly quiet –
open, waiting eyes

***
