haiku poetry – Kate Cornwell: Stories of my life

Urges

Urging to live life Not knowing any better I will not tell you

I was late for lunch Which means having good results Of course I am sure

The last time I saw Everything that meant the most It went up in flames

Good grace and manners Never went over too well Hiding behind doors

Snow glimmers bright white Dangers hide with each misstep I will not turn back

Sparkling stars sing Wondering where time has gone. Moon Beams illuminate

She would never leave. Open skies. Wandering plains. But what if God calls

Why did he freak out It was only one question Will you marry me

Townspeople crying Never moving, never leave Where is the mayor

Statues in the park Worried the town will forget Everlasting soul
