Double Blessings
My wife had gotten a mammogram a couple of weeks back. The results were inconclusive, so the doctor's office suggested she come in for a reexamination.
Naturally, she was upset and worried.
This morning she went back: Everything is fine.
Phew. Thank you Lord.
Then the mail came. I got a package from the Haiku Society of America containing the 2009 members' anthology, A Travel-Worn Satchel. The anthology has a theme of "geography of place or haiku of place." Somehow, one of mine got in.
On page 89:
a break in the clouds
gave way to sunrise -
Nagasaki
(Yes, that's one of the poems I posted on August 9 to remember Nagasaki and Hiroshima.)
