Haiku 12

the exposed roots 
            of fragile mountain trees~ 
                   tears of a nurse

Yes, even for nurses who have had years of experience there comes a time when they too feel the pressure of work and the fragility of their patients. ~ Regards // paul

Ah, so sad, every nurse in the world would understand this poem clearly right now. :)

I can't imagine what those who work and have worked so hard during this time have gone through and how tired they must be. Enjoyed reading your work. Sara
