Another saturday's Haiku Heights prompt. This week the prompt is "urn". What can I do with this prompt? I have given it a try, but it wasn't easy.
For my brother ... I will miss you forever.
in loving memory -
above the fireplace
my brother's urn
above the fireplace
my brother's urn
my brother's urn
a still life of remembrance
tears in my eyes
a still life of remembrance
tears in my eyes
I wish ...
that there was no urn for him
and he was still alive
that there was no urn for him
and he was still alive
Sincerely
