                                             I Await My Death
                                    No one here, to shed a tear
                                          Only YOU MY LOVE

                     Inspired by “ PROFESSOR “  Joseph Spence   who taught
                            Me the difference between a Senryu and a Haiku
                    Senryu--- about people or a person    Haiku--- about Nature

                    Dedicated to Christine Wessels  Hope this helps YOU Write
                             YOUR first  HAIKU, I look Forward to reading IT
