HAIKU by Sarah Nightfeather Bruce
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ECHOES
Alone and perfect
their sound exactly the same
ringing back to me.
~~~~~~~~~~~
STARS
Stars are in the night
they are worlds far and bright
they shine all the time.
~~~~~~~~~~~
REFLECTIONS
The reflections lie
It’s only on the outside
don’t rely on them.
~~~~~~~~~~~
NIGHT PATH
And the night grows dark
down the mysterious road
they are filled with fear.
~~~~~~~~~~~
SPACE
Where is outer space
stretching outward forever
there will be no end.
~~~~~~~~~~~
