Leon Enriquez Poet Haiku

Start Again

Brief message
Wind blows this way;
Listen well

~~~~~~~~~


Year ends here
Airline tragedy;
All aboard dead

~~~~~~~~~


So much pain
Year-end debris;
Heartaches mourning

~~~~~~~~~


Once again
Violent bad weather;
Frightening nature

~~~~~~~~~


Flotsam debris
Choppy sea waves;
Swirl dead bodies

~~~~~~~~~


Wet monsoon violence
So many lives lost;
Tragic endings

~~~~~~~~~


Words cannot contain
Sadness and closure;
Nightmares taunt

~~~~~~~~~


Traumatic episodes
So much of pain;
Issues unresolved

~~~~~~~~~


To venture forth
Try unknown fate;
Life bears risky moves

~~~~~~~~~


Dance to the light
Free from old chains;
Let soul rejoice

~~~~~~~~~


Loss brings pain
Terrible and true;
So much suffering

~~~~~~~~~


Here and now we pray
For peace to find;
Lead us back home

~~~~~~~~~


Tragedy starts
Humanity mourns;
Healing will come

~~~~~~~~~
