I CANNOT COMPOSE HAIKU
I cannot compose Haiku
To say how much hailaiku
and prose
it bores.
It’s much too plain
for a time like this.
So what do I do?
Chime
a rhyme
out of time
to say ‘bye’?
(sigh!)
Do you have to go?
I know
a rainbow
Cannot stay forever.
But rainbows return
Sometimes they do.
Will you?
Won’t you?
Until then
Amen!
I’ll miss you…………. (22.4.86)
