Deserted: A Haiku...!!!




bereft of loved ones,
deserted we are left; as
hard time approaches;


Written for: Haiku-Heights(part of The April Heights Month)

PS: Just a perception from a big collection of how one interprets situations in life... :)

    You always give us thoughtful haiku. I like the line "bereft of loved ones" because sometimes despite ourselves we feel this way.

    There is an enigmatic beauty in tragedy! Sometimes, physical pain is just when the spirit flowers with exquisite beauty!

A Long and A Lone Run.. Few thoughts..!!

Covid-19 has got to the nerves of everyone, someway or the other. However, there is one thing that has helped me maintain my sanity is endurance sports, like long runs and long bike rides.

Despite all this, even with so much physical activity, I've never attempted a half marathon alone. All my 14 half-marathons have been in some event or the other.
