Fierce…. first, beautiful haiku, approaching the painful joy of perfection perilously close… don’t know how literal you were being, but it would be worth a lot for me to be able to sit by my grandmother’s grave…. second, I just re-read your above “About” statement, and have to ask you a question… Were you born in either 1952 or 1964? I’m terminally curious about synchronicity, or its possibilities…. thanks….if it matters at all…. I was born in 1950….
My friend thank you so much for the compliments. Synchronicity is a funny thing given m-theory one never knows what may cross between universes. Time is relative, my trip on this timeline started in 67.
Okay, theory dashed, not surprising as it was astrologically based…. 🙂 52 and 64 were both Years of the Dragon, so I thought your sensei might have seen that in you, to name you Fierce Sun…. but it fits you, regardless of astrology, the science of the half-real fallacies…. take care, my friend….
You know, I just realized recently that I have yet to visit my father’s grave since he was buried. Albeit I live very far away, but I’ve traveled home even just last fall. Why did it not occur to me until I’d returned? Something about this first time makes me steps very slow, and I suspect my heart at least will flutter with the visit. Thanks for visiting and reading at the rabbit warren.

Exquisite.

Another beautiful poem, would you mind if I did a drawing based on it?
I would be honored. Glad my writing inspires.
