accumulating
as if there no tomorrow
death lay in waiting
Thufail, as my friend Melvina has said before me, this is a very powerful Haiku. We accumulate a lot of this in our life, material things which we can't take with us. Top marks and thanks for sharing it my friend. David
When we are born, we brought nothing and when we die, we take nothing. In between we accumulate wealth, which gives no pleasure, but pain only. A good Haiku.
A very powerful Haiku, some people feel their accumulation of materialistic things actually values them. One thing I know for sure, those things we can't take with us when the good Lord calls us home. Excellent Haiku, well penned Thufail. Thankyou--Melvina--
