The Long Journey - A Haiku Chain

A multi-versed Haiku about my wife’s journey through cancer

Many years of health

Blessing flowed abundantly

Laughter, love and peace

 

Without permission

Beneath the surface growing

Tumors of evil

 

Tears of fear crying

Uncertain times lie ahead

Love will get us through

 

Sickness darkness light

A vicious circle of health

Winter days so bleak

 

Spring days get longer

Sunshine through the clouds breaks free

Haze covers us again

 

Summer brings a knife

Malevolent lumps removed

Only scars remain

 

Autumn winds blow hot

Skin red but not from sunshine

Bid cancer goodbye

 

Winter brings healing

Snowfall comes with hope renewed

Normal is brand new

 

Life continues on

Rivers flow to the ocean

Laughter Love Health
