Haiku 4.21

how sweet is her love
as I change and grow how sweet
is her loving touch

Last Car

a thirty-year-old would
have never thought
what I just thought

I am convinced that
when you get older you
have older thoughts

which made me thank
God for life today as I
thought that it is

highly probable I have
purchased my last car

Haiku 23.20

it happened quickly
I sneezed like my father more
like him than I like
