Survivor
So it wasn’t the
day you expected at all.
You’re a survivor.
Love
Love can steal across
a life and complete the one
for whom it has come.
Measure
What is the measure
of a life? To live on in
others we have loved.
These are excerpts from Life: a definition of terms, a book of haiku poetry. For more of Rachel’s poems, visit her Reader Library page, where you can get a couple of volumes for free.
