Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
Happens everywhere all the time Leo!! ….but why do we let ourselves be betrayed all the time??
A great question we could all ask in any country! It's also like bribery…lets the eople hear what they want to hear and then forget about it!
deceptively cute – right on target.
Politicians continually disappoint me! ThisPoet’s Choice
If you're talking politics you probably wiil feel let down!
Excellent haiku! And so true!
Our nation sure is as many others…I loved the image and the Haiku is well thought out as ever.
cute, and powerful.
Powerful words.
Thanks, Harshadji 🙂
Thanks, Cello!
Thanks, Rekha. Yes, a lot many countries being betrayed by the politics for sure!
Thanks, Madeleine!
Yes, we probably will… most of the time too, Andy!
Likewise, I'm sure, MMT!
Thanks, Shauna!
Yes. True.. Never thought of it as bribery, Gemma but you do have a valid point!
Don't know.. Guess we think, try all the bad ones, one ought to be good.. but mostly, all of them are bad, Nanka!
Mine was politics also. 1665 politics aren't much different from those of today. Only fewer people pay with their lives…
Thankfully, Jim! 🙂
