Death, doom, destruction,
Emotional reduction,
Need reconstruction.
(c) Stacey "Mamasaid" D 2009
The past few weeks have been overwhelming. Ongoing illness, a fatal family accident and the death of multiple celebrities stressed me out. Couple it all with endless rainy days and it's been a real downer. Haiki helps me to let it all go so I can keep on keepin' on.

It's great you are able to find an outlet for your stresses.
Poetry has been my outlet since I was about 7 years old :)
Keep writing, and I am sorry for your losses.
Thank you Carol.
i liked it, especially "need reconstruction"... I am going through something like that with the imbalance of my progesterone and estrogen in my body... add the rain, the foggy haze in my head... need to paint..but can't find myself going into my art studio. need to hold a baby... the smell, the coo's... is an instant high for me.
I understand hormone imbalances well, ugh. Babies are delightful! Soon you'll be back to painting...
Sounds a lot like my life of recent weeks as well, Stacey. How about we take off and spend a few luxurious days at a spa? (We can dream, can't we???)
I'm all for a few days at a spa, Kimberly - even if it's just in a dream :)
We sure do.
Join us Des ;)
Great Haiku, and definitely keep em coming, and keep on getting on.
Thanks Nancy!
Very appropriate and well written. Many (probably most) can identify. Thanks, Stacey.
Thank you, John.

Yes it can Roger, thanks.
Sistah Stacey - I'm so sorry for everything you've gone through recently...and glad that you're able to put it in a haiku - which flows wonderfully - things will get better soon...will write to you soon - busy here. Salud
Sistah, I was missing writing haiku for Shedding Light and it somehow just naturally flowed into my everyday life to offer some much-needed relief. Thank you for the inspiration! I know you're very busy right now, will talk soon ;) ((hugs))
Universal and well done. Please join us in The Poet's Circle to share you gems?! I'll send you an invite now. hugs
