Tree of Innocence

Tree of innocence
your pretty leaves are made of hope
Your roots are torn apart

Oh, this is the best yet of the recent haiku of yours I read. NICE write! Tnanks for your more than kind words about my sweet deathly rose. I saw so many good entries in the betrayal contest, gosh, I would be in super good company if I even got an honorable mention for it! Luv,andrea

Gert this gets one to thinking about their lives and what our roots mean to us. Excellent Senryu!! Really like it. Makes one think and that's always good and hard to do in just three lines. Thanks for sharing. Take care my friend. Love Light Patty
