Haiku Heights, 2013 September Heights #20
Myth
Disbelieving the incredible
Rede of heroic past
Only blood on the tree bark.
***
Incredible tale
Of past glory and heroes
Blood traces will stay.

Thanks, Linda. That is exactly why I share both – I can’t discard either. I love them both 🙂 Besides, I always believe more words say more… A strange statement for a haiku poet.
