Storms of Life

In bleak of darkness

Standing alone in the world

Hope is still alive

Very uplifting haiku, Carolyn. It reminds me of the message in the movie "Hope Floats," one of my favorites because it shows how a woman was able to rebuild her life against all odds. Anyone who suffers from loneliness or despair should see that movie. Hopefully, your poem will help other readers weather the "Storms of Life." Well done! Love, CD
