The sun’s open arms
Embrace the emerging day
Seeking lost sunbeams
Clutching at ripe fruit
Ever hoping to regain
Spent and mislaid strength
Hopeless task to set
Once spent never recovered
Now feeding our homes
Caught by our panels
Sustained by the human race
Lost to Mother Earth

Excellent Roland. I love how you have woven the four haiku in with your paintings, they all work so well together.
