Through my chest, stomach and arm
Fear overtook me
During was quiet
No fear or concern, just love
A knowing somehow
After was pure joy
Completely overwhelming
More than expected

The haiku form works well, doesn't it? I rather like the slight ambiguity, allowing more than one interpretation. Although, as I discovered while teaching poetry, even if all seventeen students had a different interpretation, all of them linked.
thanks Margo, I'm trying to leave more room for the reader in my poems and enjoying where.it leads. it's nice to hear that it's working
I love haiku, although I'm not very clever in writing them. Yours are quite lovely!
A heart attack...or stroke? Scary...accomplished well with brevity, Emma!
