Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Haiku

- Haiku X 43 - the Death-

Christmas sparkling lights
               Weak brightness through tearful eyes
               Unexpected death

Robert Johnson January 16, 2015 at 10:37 AM There aren't words that can be spoken. When at Christmas, your heart is broken. Your Haiku shines deep and dark. At a time when, what is that? Hark. We hear the angels sing. Peace. :) Anne-Lise Andresen January 16, 2015 at 12:17 PM - Robert, thanks for visiting and comments - peace // Anne-Lise :)
