Flower
Flowers and photos.
The last daisy petal falls.
Will you pick me, sir?

Time
Tired & Sad like
never before! I think it
is time to move on,
all this nonsense love
is killing me softly.
Missed Connections are filled with good, bad, and tired-n-sad haiku. Did you write one? Did you find one? Did you respond to one? Before you move on, email the link to Lovelorn Poets. We’ll preserve those intentional or unintentionally counted and constructed syllables for all eternity.
You
between now and now,
between I am and you are,
the word bridge.

amoureux
forget about me
and i’ll forget about you
i’m sorry for the
way things turned out maybe it
was for the better.

write
I lent you a book,
and inside, on the title,
was an inscription,
in Ancient Greek, of a poem
written by Sappho.
