Category: Haiku Poems About Age, Sickness, and Death

Spring stream
My blood flows
strong again

Spring stream
My breath flows
strong again

Respiratory
droplets – Soft
spring rain

Fever spiked
Season’s first
forsythia bloom

Fever broke
Season’s first
forsythia bloom

Penned panther
Can’t catch
my breath

Rabbit stirs
My mother’s
dry cough

Honeysuckle wrapped
throughout the hedge
Infection spreads

If this fever
doesn’t soon break
Social media

Frozen
footprint
Another birthday

Vodka straight up
He slipped and froze between
curb and car
