one deep breath haiku: bridges


we inch back from shouted hurts
separation spanned
patched together here and there


See what other imaginations saw at one deep breath haiku.

I am going to try and use your line for PT this week-it may be late on Thursday-depends how fast I can write tonight.

t's a nice haiku, and a nice photo. I used your line "but we're used to it" for this week's Poetry Thursday prompt. You might like to visit and see what I did with it :)

I like this very much. You've packed a lot of big emotions in a few well-chosen words. The pic is perfect for this haiku. Nice!

Dot, did you look inside my head before you wrote this? Amzing how it matches a recently reality of mine.

Solid description of "re-bridging" in a relationship.

This is simply a beautiful way to think about relationships.
