New Year
The new year begins
with fanfare, but the quiet
moments pave its way.
Happiness
We play a game of
Uno, laughing till we cry
It’s all in good fun
Advice
The whole world’s working
against you. You might lose. Fight
damn hard anyway.
These are excerpts from Life: a definition of terms, a book of haiku poetry. For more of Rachel’s poems, visit her Reader Library page, where you can get a couple of volumes for free.
