powerful words and image.
It could be very easy to slip into despair when one is old and alone….
Oh, may a stranger come along and bring a little springtime bloom back into this benchsitter’s life with a moment of kindness and attention!
Vanished spring? Wow.. I’m amazed by your writing becca..

Oh my goodness, this is sad. “vanished spring” indeed. Beautifully done, Becca
The combination of words and image is just heartbreaking.
Wow. This really speaks of the loneliness so many older people face. Very sad.
Stranded? No not you Becca … I can see the progress in your haiku … this is wonderfully composed.
How many people are there in the world like the one you describe?
Loneliness of Stars
Yes – vanished spring. It fades so quickly and leaves many in winter sooner than expected.
