Haikus never made much sense to me. But your topic selection is great. Comparing an old woman with a rose..perhaps the last rose on the bush..as all the rest have withered away.... good work |

This was great..you captured the image of someone who's life is gone from them..although they are still living... Tess "What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies." -Aristotle |
