Susan Diridoni & Stella Pierides: Wednesday Haiku, Week 58


"High dwellings are the peace and harmony of our descendants. 
Remember the calamity of the great tsunamis. 
Do not build any homes below this point." 1.

    Don, this is so tender a reminder. Thank you.
    I wrote this last year:
    a day blowing wind the earth shivers a wave
    Peace. Andrea

    Indeed, it is - our long-ago ancestors taking care of us in a loving way.
