Yes, and in the end God and goodness triumph. It is also a reminder to keep the troops in our prayers. They sacrifice so much for our freedom. Much conveyed in just three lines. Keep on writing. Thank you for your kind comments. Karen

Yes, America's still the best ring freedom has got, but having said that, the whole world is in a heap of trouble, if you catch my drift! Like Forrest Gump, thats all Iam gonna say about that! Sincerely, Love Moses, Good Haiku Dane!

Yes, Dane Ann, you're right! Coming back to my "Ivory Rose", losing someone you have loved will never get out of your mind. Thank you for all your comments...Love, Gert

Very true..... good write.. Thanks for your comments about my cat. I have two little Yorkshire terriers and a kitten as well but Shan is the one I have to look after well now. She has been there for me all those years so now I am there for her. Love Pam.

Iraq is a chapter for itself. It is terrible that killings and bombing continues but as you say "freedom rings". Very thoughtful Haiku, Dane Ann! And thank you for all your meanigful comments, Gert
