Our Church Organist

Our Church Organist

All of this truly happened.
I am writing this haiku to
explain what had happened.

Last week was a fire
And the whole entire house,
Burned down to the ground.

Never again same;
Does feel sorry for herself;
Has guilty Conscience.

Luckily no one
Did die or had been injured;
This we thank God for.

Prayed for her today;
A sweet person is always;
Our church organist.

AD, It was rather odd. They sang a hymn called Like The Murmur of the Dove's song. One line said like the new flame's eager light. When they sang that she started crying. Jim
