my body has been / through hell and back, and survived. / i should thank her more.

haiku february 2021 (cc, 2021)
23. Icy rain; I curl into the warmth from my cup of chamomile tea 24. Soft nose nudges my hand; mother bunny curls up into my lap, tired 25. Crescent moons; Winter wraps its hands around my neck and the silver bleeds 26. Amethyst eyes; you cling to her cold hands and pray for your mind to clear 27. Hints of lavender and rosemary stains my hands; now the garden sleeps
One final Haiku for National Haiku Writing month, Thank You to everyone who participated with us this year.
Leap year girl; tonight you are vanilla candle wax and unvoiced pain

i would’ve kissed you one last time, if i had known it’d be the last time

Photo haiku version of my little piece I contributed to the Int'l Haiku global poem with the theme of ‘reconciliation.’
#international poetry day
dawn and dusk day and night’s points of reconciliation
By Em Yonge 4/18/2017
i.
The only honest
thing you gave me was your touch;
that's the easy part
ii.
happiness can flee
on its own naturally
but you gave it wings
iii.
anger and spite don't
look good on me, but
neither did your weight
iv.
I hate you almost
as much as how you left me
broken and waiting
v.
fuck you, fuck me, fuck
your empty promises and
your emptier heart
vi.
The end is never
pretty, even in haiku it's
sugarcoated red.
The lovely @drunk-on-writing inspired me to do nahaiwrimo, so I decided to catch up. ❤🥀

i don’t always have to feel the sun; sometimes to see it is enough

Are chips and queso
A healthy breakfast choice? No,
But oreos are.
