Day #26 - 2012 Haiku Challenge - Theme - Food for Thought
Poverty and pain
Beside blissful abundance
So does the world turn
See children suffer
See a child of abundance
Food for thought
Opposites attract
Compassion we can measure
Ignorance abounds
Well done. The words you have used have really painted the image. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHeartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteYour set of haiku very nicely painted this sad reality of life.
ReplyDeleteHonestly speaking though, I'm getting depressed reading today's haiku based on the sadness depicted.
This is a sad prompt picture...very meaningful take on life of poverty versus child of abundance in rich countries ~
ReplyDeletePoignant set ... nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI did not have the "heart" to go with the realism of either image today ...so here is my lighter Day 26.
BTW - your link in the entries is not working. I used the link from the comment section to get here. May want to resubmit, unless SiS fixes it. I left a note to him about it.
It's the opposites in this life that disturb me the most...
ReplyDeleteInstead of Food
Would you please consider using only comment moderation and forgetting about Blogger's new, and very-difficult-to-read word verification? My eyes will thank you, and, honestly, you really don't need both. It's overkill. Thanks again.
You have said it all.. :-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, ignorance abounds - such a good way to sum this up!!
