This week’s Ronovan Writes challenge is to use the words “hope” and “magic” in a haikai poem. I have 2 to share.
Aging
Children believe in
Magic, and the word “hopeless”
Is not known to them —
Why do adults turn away
From wells of ageless wisdom?
Coming and going,
Hope is not a magic spell.
How I love her face,
How her presence saves from hell,
Nothing else can take her place.
