Pause for a moment, and write a haiku about what's around you.

Beyond flesh and bone
it lies
waiting for.....
atlast hope dies.

I lost my original comment - tech snag I suppose:

I wanted to say that there have been many wonderful Haiku today but this one, well, it is soul deep and longing.  “waiting for……atlast hope dies.”  I love the use of the dotted pause, like taking a breath just prior to awareness and accepting its reality.  This can mean so many things.  It is full of life and death and beauty, therfore, hope doesn't really die.  This is so very special.  It rolls of the tongue so well and says so much - a true Haiku.  Thank you Kymmi, its quite beautiful.
