A thousand thieves may /

rip the jonquils from the ground /

but they can’t steal Spring.

Not so long ago, /

Nature’s life blood arrested. /

Locked in winter’s ice.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Once again”

Once again

Cold day for treatment. /

Chemotherapy’s embrace /

In both weather and bones.

Mask

Abandoned or lost /

We will not find our way home /

By failing to care.
