WALES HAIKU JOURNAL
Muddy Footprints – Samantha Sirimanne Hyde and Marilyn Humbert
young neighbours...
we talk of the kids
we never had
Samantha
our gangster son
the promise of rain
disappears eastward
Marilyn
the little girl
pulls her mum in —
sunlit trampoline
Samantha
a lone boy
watching from the edge
twin cygnets between parents
Marilyn
tropical rain...
muddy footprints
at the orphanage
