The Haiku Challenge 2012 – Day 21 – Dedication

Share this post ❤

It feels as though Day 21 has arrived too quickly! Today’s prompt is “write a haiku based on the theme:

 “Dedication”

To my mom

A portrait of love
Embodiment of all wise
And wonderful things

My mentor and friend
She steered me on the right path
Inspiring my growth

To my pressure cooker

Without you, my life
Would be difficult. Cooking
Tasty food a chore

To my spectacles

You gave me vision
To see the world around me
In its full glory

Written for The Haiku Challenge 2012 – Day 21 – February 21st – Theme: Dedication
