Gratiku Day Fifteen

 

Someone I love has been in the ICU, and is finally communicating with me again. I'm thankful!

Many days’ silence
Ends with these three precious words:
Simply, “How are you?”

Birdtober? Gratiku? What's up with me and these made-up words and daily posting? Well, I've learned that a tiny little burst of creativity each day helps keep me going, stops me from being entirely fixated on the mess. That's why I post daily photos on Facebook. And that's why I'm doing these writing projects. This one is a daily haiku about something I'm thankful for. (A gratitude haiku - get it?) As long as the internet keeps working, I'm going to try to post one every day in November.
