This poem was written in response to March 19, 2018: ‘Round Midnight’, another great prompt at Seeds and Sand. The prompt and poems can be read here. Jen asked us to pick a song that reminds us of someone and so, to finish, here’s The Kills because I have to keep finding new covers of this song –
Hadn’t heard of The Kills before….
And this is another haiku that sends my mind in so many directions. Whatever the direction, she’s vivid. A difficult thing to write about, perhaps, but you did it very well. 🙂
(It seems when I initially replied I made that schoolboy error of not actually hitting the ‘reply’ button – so… Take 2!)
Yes, it was quite tricky to write a haiku (in the now) about reminiscing, I thought. A fiendish prompt! 😛
Fiendish? From moi? Never 😉
As YarroHill says, this does send the mind off in all directions, thinking and wondering.
One of the things I enjoy about haiku are the “gaps” it leaves in the story 🙂
Thanks, Sarah Ann.
