Haiku Poem # 1
By: Tara Kimberley Torme
Is this because why
You left me I have few friends
I am all alone
RACHEL TAYLOR’S RESPONSE TO MY HAIKU POEM # 1 FOR TUESDAY DECEMBER 29, 2020:
Is this loss because
Everyone feels so downtrod
Or that they feel free?

In small doses can save a
Broken heart attack

Dear Tara Rankin,
Yesterday I went to Grandville Island. We bought a salmon, a 35c candy-stick and some ice-cream. I fed some Canadian Geese. Today I went to see a movie called The Player. It was a very good movie. I want to see Casablanca.
Love,
Tara Kimberley Torme
