Haven
Innocent kids killed
and people seeking safety.
Wondering where´s the love.
Melancholy
Sadness without cause.
Unhappiness filling souls.
Help society.
1st boyfriend
He had big green eyes,
fun and tall but a cheater
The truth is better.
Red wine
Extremely loud conversations
Dressed up people
Dining,
Eating the finest meals
Listening to Frank Sinatra
Inside a dimly lit restaurant.
Crepes and Chardonnay
Italian food is
Outstanding.
Unique hand made creations for
Super enjoyable late nights
Tired brown hands and
Inspired souls.
Exhaustion filling their bodies but
Remembering their family´s need
Rechazados por muchos pero
Aun con la frente en alto.
Barbacoa y tortillas de harina
Recien hechas a mano esperando en casa.
Overtime and late nights
Working for a better life.
Nunca dejes de sonar.
Your first haiku made me think of your line in your ideal world poem about cancelling the term "illegal aliens." I really love the hard-working, tight-knit scene you set up in your last piece and how you included the lines in Spanish. Lovely...
