Lay them not in hindsight
nor in apology, but in loves bank.
Strengthen the bouquet, againgst mephitic deeds.
Written for TJ P aris haiku challenge – bouquet.
For all the soliders and the one’s who have gone beyond as a result of conflict or hate.
This week I went a word above the usual, sorry.

I applaud your sentiments in this very thoughtful haiku. The humble soldier is often forgotten although they may be fighting every day for justice.

Indeed they are forgotten and I think they would rather have peace before war and not the other way around.
People in relationships often forget to give gifts of love too.
Thanks TJ Paris.

Absolutely. Soldiering is not just a “job” it is truly putting your life on the line every day. So sad we need people to do this.

I was wondering if you would be interested in being part of a “Haiku Hub” I am thinking of setting up on my blog. If you would like to be included just let me know in a reply and I will add your blog to the Hub Page. I am hoping to get as many Haiku writers together to share their writing.
