Poetry Friday: In Hope, Polyester

I've been busy researching and writing so my blog is skinny! How about you?

But all things have to stop for Poetry Friday! These two haiku popped out this morning for this photo of me as a child. Two very different directions...

In Hope

Anticipation
poised at the window of light
watching the future.

Polyester

Even my double
knit polyester couldn't
shield me for what came.
