We are to use this beautiful haiku to inspire our writing…
lights along the shore
shimmering reflections
ripple in the lake

She remembers telling her youths many times how grief is like a tidal wave at first with waves crashing on the shore with such a vengeance. Over time the waves roll in with restraint and eventually over time, intermittently until they roll in no longer. Eventually, the water is clear like a mirror safe for a single ripple…
reminder
gentle ripple on the water
memories of long ago
reminder
times she held me close,
brings a smile
gentle ripple on the water
subtle, yet genuine
and surreal
memories of long ago
songs echo in my heart
even if off-key

Through grasslands
recalls her favoured green
never forgotten
never forgotten
blessing that soul departed
crosses herself.
