When Moments Count

The first two go together. The final two are random.

silk flowers

a lifeless substitute-

his proposal

 

lipstick

on the wineglass-

final kiss

 

---

comforting my daughter

mother’s words

in my mouth

 

when moments count

poets need not bother-

haiku

I can't decide if I like the first or second one the best, but why choose when I can save all four to my library and decide later. Wonderful words.
Take care,
Sherry

Cleverly done, Lori...with some igniting thoughts in the first two; tender in the third; SO RIGHT in the last :o)
