Love in Haiku

Love in Haiku

For Paul

I dream of your touch,

love of my life, gone too soon.

Some day, I’ll join you.



I’ve always loved you;

we both know I always will.

Your love is still here,



keeping me alive.

Our love is what warms me still,

our love never fades.



Though winter brings death,

I feel your warmth on the breeze,

loving me always.
