Where's Hope - Split Haiku

Without hope, what then Wander sans reason Months pass without season Vacancy sign reads What is all that knocking for No one's home any more God keeps on knocking He says it may be dark now Search for light anyhow That glimmer will spark Illuminating your mind Pain Is not all you'll find You'll find those missing seconds, minutes, days, weeks too Time still exists for you You'll survive the months with love for each new season God's hope is the reason... 3/29/16

Dineen, maybe one day you can teach me what a split haiku is. I enjoyed especially the last one. LINDA

Hey Linda! When I read the contest title, "Mystics Split Haikus", I thought, what is a split haiku? Intriguing...she wrote in the contest description: Split-haiku's in syllables of 5, 7, 1, 5. Figured I'd give it a try. Happy to know you enjoyed, thank you!
