#NaPoWriMo 2021 - Haiku of Life (1977 and 1978)

 











1977


Watching you struggle

your mum didn't know how to say

you were colourblind.



(I was around 5 when I had to do a test which proved me colourblind and it took my mother days to explain to me I was different)



1978


Step in my footsteps

your father barked walking us

to school in the snow.


(Another early memory - 1978 was a terrible winter with my dad unable to get to work, walked us to school in the heavy snow)
