Hi, Roberta, Watch your mailbox… Hope this haiku is an old memory …
I’ve not seen this one before, Roberta. Vivid and arresting – brilliant in the true sense.
Fresh wounds heal, and then there is real strength and ability.
Vury nice.
Very striking and lovely.
Reality of life in a real world. Interesting concept of the haiku form of poetry.
HI Roberta — much enjoying reading the Archives for tinywords.
In your poem, you've chosen a startling image and red as a color has much layered meaning; here, particularly, the heart.
Here is another place that red startled me recently:
At the Beethoven quartet the violinist's red shoes keeping time
