Face to the Wind


[A series of Haiku about my apprehensions, goals, ambitions, and determination to return to college] Clouds above loom dark Shattered by the wind and light A revelation Ghosts tug at my mind Doubts I banish from within My own creation I am a vessel Seeking to be filled with sight A destination I overcome fear Pursuing life-changing goals An education I am my future I construct it stone by stone Exist in motion
