Tribute To Harry Horsman
“primrose coloured sky
grey clouds chase the setting sun…
rain kisses scorched earth”
by Harry Horsman
A beautiful haiku by Harry. I think one
of Harry's last, "Woopa Bank,” shows
his caring for nature. And, I read
one recently about the kindness of the
the gravedigger, who is the last one with
the deceased. Harry told me he was a
gravedigger when he was young. That
was Harry—gentle with the soil that
covered the grave.
Dear Harry, we will miss you so much
and long for your lovely poetic touch.
You made simple things in life more real
Your graciousness in your poems we feel
...Goodnight, gentle soul
