I think we've all felt this way in life sometimes. I read this and I see a berry slowing separating from a limb, a blueberry. Full, ripe and ready to enjoy life. I like this one alot

Me too sometimes
That is sort of how I feel. Barely hanging on to life since February 10, 2004, will mark a year since my mother died. Writing poem for Poetryality's contest and your nice comment on my poem gave me a little more strength. Sometimes we have to look for resources beyond ourselves to find strength and Poetryality's contest rules and your comment are some really nice resources to bring smiles to a fellow poet's face. Thank you

Kind of melancholy, sure sez a lot, though. This is so much a part of my worries, the future, all those tomorrows, I don't want to waste them cuz I've wasted so many. Wow, so fine for so short! :) -

VERY good!
Actually, to me, it doesn't sound hopeful (well, sort of ) so much as slightly desperate..but sometimes there's an austere HOPE hiding INSIDE desperation...
I'm probably being too zen-like and tired...but you just tossed a coin with this haiku..and instead f landing DEFINITEIVELY on heads or tails, it came up 'sides'...
And is a very deep write as a result!
Good job! -

This is lovely catz--it brings so much meaning out of the dark! Although it really makes me feel guilty for all the wasted days I've ever spent... ;) -
don't touch it!
That spoke volumes in so few words, a Haiku of the highest order. Take a bow. -

or failing that normality
but it's all a lottery (s)
