Tobacco Match-Questionku With Tobacco Bridge- Haiku

Tobacco Match – Questionku with Tobacco Bridge - Haiku

      
        Tobacco Match - Questionku

Children Playing
Cigarettes and death
What bum gave the matches


       Tobacco Bridge- Haiku

young ones cover smoke
under bridge, hid with matches
lungs cannot forgive

Hi Anne Lise, Thank you for commenting. I am never unkind with people and never use raw or undignified language against people but I had to make a poetic point by using the word "bum" to describe people who harm children or the young ones. I'm glad you enjoyed my 2 poems. Have a pleasant day. Take care. Earl
