moist with rain, rain
that tastes
like
hurt

ReplyDeleteDear Karen,
ReplyDeleteHow are you? Thank you so much for
commenting. Rain does carry a certain
taste, a certain scent.

I liked that line about the rain. It definitely has a taste. May thanks.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
Dear Ms. London,
ReplyDeleteThank you. Rain does have a distinct
taste.

Rain that tastes like hurt... sometimes all interaction hurts - everything around us that reminds us that we do have feelings, that we can feel and we can't shut everything out, anything touching us can hurt us.
ReplyDeleteDear Pinkerbell,
ReplyDeleteTouching does hurt. Sometimes painful enough
you must regroup in your private place. Then
there are the times when the hurt is a good kind
of I'm alive and human hurt, like a good tired.
Wonderful of you to visit again.

Dear Marie,
ReplyDeleteSoft and stunning imagery as always. If you ever compile a book, may I provide the photographs?
Adore what you do and wish you would drop more pearls, more often.
Dear Clarity,
ReplyDeleteI'm stunned, in a good way. I slowed
down because it seems as if no one was
reading my poetry. My haiku to come.
What a generous offer, Clarity. Creating
a chapbook of haiga is a dream of mine. You
will be the first person I contact.
Thank you again, for your kind words.
Marie
