Life has no meaning

If the sacrifice I made

Was made for nothing

 

My ultimate love

Is this gift I give you and

Peace is my prayer

Dear Paul
"Peace is my prayer" is the most beautiful offering and the Supreme Gift! Without it life has no special meaning!

Amen and amen to that, Paul. I don't think any sacrifice is ultimately in vain, though little attention may seem at the time to be ascribed to it, sadly. As humans we DO tend to only value what is truly important in retrospect, which is so sad. Time is the great evaluator of true worth. And timeless will be your haiku (although I am truly valuing it here and now, as are we all!) TY and bless you. Kate xx
