Dew frozen in time.

Like Grendel before Beowulf,

Doomed or misconstrued?

    I REALLY like this! More haikus should ask questions; they demand that extra thought. And this one is making me linger on whether dew is doomed or misconstrued, lol. Like, I never thought of any of that, but now I kinda like the thought of it being misconstrued. Might be fuel for an answer poem... Damn, Matthew. I've been neglecting your writing and I feel so humbled dipping my toe back into your library.

    Short and sweet. I love it.

  • Dew frozen in time, not doomed but perhaps misconstrued. Loved your Haiku!
