A Haiku About The BC Fires

I guess I’m lucky. My major impact from these fires has been increased sneezing. It might also play a part in the migraines I’m fighting these past few days. There are many folks for whom this is seriously debilitating. I’m glad that’s not me. 

Any way, as I’m want to do, here’s a haiku for you. 

Larabee State Park: A HaikuĀ 

As the cliff decays

Hope thrives in sunlight
