I smile #mswarrior #poetry

I smile, I lie
Smooth waters run shallow
Tempest beneath

So much said in so few words, such a skill. Brilliant x

This is fantastic! I read it 3 or 4 times because it says so much in so few words. Clever lady. Thank you for linking to Prose for Thought x

Thanks Sara, I love haiku, write hundreds of them a day, most of them not so great, but sometimes they just flow. This one felt like it came to me rather than from me, if that makes sense.

Thanks, that means a huge amount from you. I think this is one of those poems which comes to me as a gift for my healing. As it wrote itself I felt a weight lifted. To be able to say it like it is.
