Where Poetry Is Found
It’s in those moments
That make us smile whilst crying
We find poetry.
It can be found as
The sun leaves behind a sky
Made of candy floss.
It can be found at
Dawn, beneath the thunder cloud
Which could quench or drown.
It can be found in
The caress of a loved one,
You won’t see again.
It can be found by
Those who still demand justice
With their voiceless eyes.
It can be found on
The way to tragedy
That makes you giggle.
It can be found when
Time slows to a snails pace, but
Blink and it is gone
It can be found if
You look in the right places
But don’t search too hard.
Please do keep looking
For it though, as it does seem,
We can’t get enough.

Thanks Don... I often write Haiku, and quite often write a number of them on the same subject (the length really seems to fit well with my thought processes) but I had never attempted to string them together like this. Haiku with glue you might say!
