Hugs

Surrounded by warmth
Consoling, comforting, love
Touching skin and soul




This is probably considered to be Senryu in a Haiku format and in that format, shouldn't be titled but I title all my Haiku. One of the liberties we Westerner's take when striving to emulate that beautiful Japanese art form.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.
