Hands
soft strong competent
fingers banded with rings matte
palms I long to hold

- I love language. I am often in awe of the ways in which people use it to string together moments of art, love, and logic. Here are my attempts at doing just that.

Robin, this is great. I love how you take something so simple and mundane and make it so sentimental.
ReplyDeleteIsn't the haiku great?
Thanks. It's actually a type of poetry I'm less familiar with. My comfort zone is really free verse. I mean, I feel like pushing myself to focus on rhyme or meter ends up taking away from the sentiments I'm compelled to convey in my writing. But luckily when I wrote this one, I kind of knew that all that was needed to be said could be said in just a few words and I wouldn't have to push too far and voila, the haiku was born. Glad you enjoyed.
