Haiku for Lunch




I have wiped away
the print you left on my life,
but a smudge remains.

Now that I know life
it is too late to put on
a different show.

Here is a green field
where you can lie down and rest.
No thoughts, no actions.

 Bridget Harwell

*Haiku: an unrhymed verse form of Japanese origin
having three lines of five, seven and five syllables.
