s.h.y. at 45!
Unexpected notes of concern and care from people you rarely meet are indeed very heartwarming-- much more so a piece of work that they exclusively dedicate to you.
Marco, a teacher, composed the following tanka-like poem which he dedicated to me (the "I"):
Many thanks to you, Marco!
The poem contrasts quite sharply with this haiku that I have written:
Marco, a teacher, composed the following tanka-like poem which he dedicated to me (the "I"):
45 times
I have circled the sun
I keep the ship afloat
With the buoyancy
Of my soul.
Many thanks to you, Marco!
The poem contrasts quite sharply with this haiku that I have written:
At 45, I'm really very s.h.y. (Single, Happy and Young!) Looking at a half-filled cup, I also feel excited, optimistic and grateful for the other half that is empty.summer is gone...
forty-five summers
gone so quickly!
