Notes About The Poem

Just having some fun on a grey Saturday AM. Reflecting on a life of hard work and family.

Tri-Ku

Tri-Ku / Senryu


Frayed pants
aging tassels in the wind
work in progress




Patched dreams
soft comfort of renewal
love’s chevrons




Old boots
moldings of the soul
carry on

Thanks Russell, glad you enjoyed it. I was just sorta sitting here viewing life in a metaphoric mindset.
