HAIKU – JUST MISSING WORLD DAY

Posted on March 23, 2016 by Karen DeMers Dowdall

I did not get this little poem up in time to be on the 21st for World Poetry Day, but I am an academic and writer and bad poet, so I hope I can be excused. It is simply a haiku for your consideration – Charles French

Managing one’s fear

In the face of oppression

The heart of courage

Your welcome. It is my pleasure and I am now working on a commentary regarding your stunning Haiku and it what it means to be courageous in the face of oppression and fear. It is important, especially now.
