Rheumatologe: Carpe Diem Haiku No. 880 secrets unveiled of the Deep North: coolness, cloud peaks, not permitted to tell

Tuesday, December 15, 2015

Inside the hangout

Street people telling secrets

Before they must leave

After weeks and weeks

New tissue box on the desk

Permission to cry

The night is easy

With the sleeping street people

Covers each corner

How often we don't give the homeless a second look ....

The homeless are sadly a part of our landscape. I like the way your haiku is here and now!

Beautifully penned!! giving respect to street people...young and old. This time of year, I see so many sleeping off the night in the warmth of our Métro; I`m thankful they are open from 5am to 1am. Even more thankful we have not hit our usual cold weather yet. Again, I enjoyed reading your haiku.
