the heavens, hoping, someday,
God might notice you.

Thank you. I try really hard into writing "meaningful" stuff. It does become a hassle sometimes. But my belief is that if my writing (or anything I work on) touches someone in one way or another (even in a small way) then my work has accomplished more than I could ever ask for.

I love this, and the message it conveys. It's really hard for me to write meaningful haikus, but I think you did a really great job here. I can relate so much :)

I'm no deity, (although I am another person) and I, however insignificant, join with ChrisJ to recognize your talent in writing this very simple, very articulate poem. I enjoyed the read.

Hey brah! Thanks for all the wonderful comments you've left the past few days, as always I appreciate them very much and they truly do make my day! I have been reading so many flower poems lately, why have I never written one? Anyways, this first off reminded me of the book I told you I'm reading, Mythology. In the love stories when people die and they bleed, the blood spots leave the earth and turn into beautiful flowers. And it's sad, but the stories have really stuck with me, just like this poem. This is one of my favorite haikus by you! The meaning behind it is SO brilliant. Ah, my brah is SO smart. Great job, this is so so so so so so so so so so (TEN!) well done!
