Suffering from pain
God gave him heavenly space
release from life.
School bell rings
children jostle to run out,
released from jail?.
No release for her
dire unpardonable offence,
none pitied her.
Written for Haiku Horizons prompt # week 35 'Release'.
Loved your depiction of release in different forms. Well written
ReplyDeleteThanks Rajlakshmi
DeleteAll good but favoured the last one. What did she do? Write bad poetry? (giggles!)
ReplyDeleteThank you Rallentanda. She refused to write poetry.
DeleteI used to think that school was jail. ;-) I enjoyed all your Haikus but the first especially touched me this morning. I have a relative who's bravely fighting a losing battle against cancer.
ReplyDeleteThank you tdanceoflife. Sad to know about your relative. May God bless him/her.
Deleteloved the second one! In India, the schooling sucks and it seems like a jail indeed :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Ankita.
