Every hope I held
escaped to sky then looked back
with stars that said, "Come."

It ended like every other stupid idea. Badly, and alone. I’m researching digital confession ethics, he said. A tech ethicist. He gestured at floating data I couldn’t see then pulled out a physical notebook. Actual paper, fountain pen. He held it up like he was showing me scripture.

Hope is a wonderful thing… love haiku.
Hi Di ~ Ah, yes 'Hope' and Miles & Miles of Heart..! Dani, I want to thank you for your pragmatic approach comment re; my 'Chin~Music' - A simple observational piece turned into several opinion sides of the pancake. - With Respect - j.in.l.a.
Oh, I like the idea that they end up there! A beautiful sky-ku!
Might be my mood today, but I cannot quite grasp if this is supposed to be uplifting, motivational, or - quite contrarywise - very pessimistic. But I think the hallmark of great art is in allowing a plurality of interpretations, so congratz!
wow motivational, very powerful well-done
Lovely to read your work again. I can feel the pull of the stars 🌟
Awww, this was so wonderful and optimistic. Loved your poem!
Sky-high profound uplifting beauty. 💙
Oh the invitation in this is divine! This is such a memorable and fantastic haiku! Really strong entry!
This is one of those I had to read twice, and really sit in, or wrap myself round. Like a bath. Or a hot tea.
Beautiful work Dani! ☺️

That is so hopeful and encouraging!😊
