My father

On the consecrated field
where your ashes are laid
one lone rose petals red.




I should add that this photo is in fact where his ashes were spread.
It just took me 2 1/2 years to come up with the haiku...

    Awww. Very cool haiku and perfect image to go with it. I love haiku. I can see doing a whole journal around poetry.

    Two and a half years isn't too long to wait for the right words.
