the human heart

All I have today so far is a haiku I've been working on composed from the poetry fragments in my last post. I may be a little busy the next few days as my beloved daughter Emily has come to stay with us until Wednesday. She flew in from Standing Rock, North Dakota where last week she was arrested along with 120 others, for nothing more than peacefully, legally protesting. I could not be more proud of her...she is a young lady who stands up for her beliefs and those of others in need and I have so much respect for that.

Anyway, without further ado, here is my poem:

this fragile construct /
that is called the human heart /
is watered by tears.

Thanks again for reading...and again, please feel free to leave comments of any nature. I read everything and sometimes I find it quite helpful.
