On Loss

I have been working with haikus to deal with the pain and loss of my mom. I love the haiku for its simplicity and because I feel it truly visualizes emotions through words. I lost my mom in a car accident on December 10, 2011. My hope is through this writing in time I will find meaning and a new self.

A tree stands solo
With her leafless branches
Beneath the gray sky


I love you ma and miss you.
