Can't you get something that is more positive out of life than negative?

sure we can, mh. but that's not all there is to life. Haiku is about capturing "moments", and not all "moments" are sunshine and rainbows. I think that both authors here captured their moments quite well........ginny

Thanks Ginny. mh...when I read the above ku, I thought about what would happen next. If the mother is crying, and the child was just born a bastard, then the father, gulping beer, in my mind, was most likely abusive. If she stays with him, the child is at risk...it was a story line that took place in my mind. As Ginny said, life is not always beautiful. ~Q~
