Diamond-Cut Life

This morning marks the first anniversary of my mother’s death. If you’re reading this, you’ve suffered losses in your life, too. What I appreciate about loss is that it bands us human beings together. We’re vulnerable. We need each other, and we also need the natural world.  These are themes in my upcoming novel, Revelle. I wrote this haiku  last night in remembrance of Mom.

March Sky                                                                    

Gunmetal grey, dense

Tear-donor sky cracks, weeping

So I don’t have to.
